A 1701 Latin antiquarian compendium on Roman religious rites by Burkhard Gotthelf Struve, revised by Johann Bielke and Christoph Krebs, issued for scholars and students and held by Heidelberg University Library. Its copper-engraved plates arrange classical statues and gods beside small circular coin-style medallions with inscriptions, laid out in tabulated grids. A designer could borrow the orderly grid of framed roundels and the crisp hatched engraving of draped figures for a classical or emblematic layout.
