R"omische Studien
A German study of Roman art by August Kestner, published in Berlin by Decker in 1850 and aimed at scholars and students of antiquity. The single picture is a fine pen drawing in profile of a woman's head with an elaborate coiled and braided hairstyle, a loop earring and a draped neckline, showing careful contour line and soft cross-hatched shading that a designer could borrow for classical portrait sketches.
