Von den griechischen Grabreliefs : gearbeitet auf Grund des akademischen Apparates der Sammlung der Grabreliefs
A scholarly German monograph by Alfred Brueckner, published in Vienna in 1888, cataloguing ancient Greek sepulchral reliefs for specialist archaeologists and art historians. Its plates show carved grave monuments, mostly as line drawings and photographs of vases and stelai, with figures in simple robes standing or seated in quiet exchanges. A designer could take from them the strict, shallow-relief compositions and the tall, narrow shield-like silhouettes of these funerary objects.
