A multi-volume catalogue of Egyptian, Etruscan, Greek and Roman antiquities assembled by the comte de Caylus and published in Paris from 1756 for antiquarians and collectors. Engraved plates isolate single objects against blank or hatched grounds — draped statuettes, gems, cameos, lamps, vessels, inscriptions — with scale bars and plate numerals, giving clean silhouettes and line-shaded volumes for cutout use.
