The symbolical language of ancient art and mythology : an inquiry / by Richard Payne Knight.
Richard Payne Knight's 1892 New York reprint of his inquiry into symbolism in ancient art and mythology, published by J.W. Bouton with notes by Alexander Wilder, for readers of classical art and mythology. Its plates are line drawings, rotated on the page, of classical figures, cupids and reclining nudes in a fine outline style. A designer might take from them the clean contour line and the classical figure poses for mythological or antiquarian graphics.
