Alticchiero
Alticchiero is a 1787 antiquarian plate book of views and descriptions of ancient monuments, sculptures and buildings outside Rome, credited to Justine von Rosenberg-Orsini and held by Heidelberg University Library. The pictures are precise engraved and pencilled studies of statues on pedestals, carved reliefs, decorated columns and inscribed tablets, drawn in fine hatched line on pale paper, offering a designer clean classical ornament, plinth proportions and lettering layouts to draw from.
