Antiquités nationales, ou, Recueil de monumens : pour servir à l'histoire générale et particulière de l'empire françois, tels que tombeaux, inscriptions, statues, vitraux, fresques, etc. : tirés des abbayes, monastères, châteaux, et autres lieux devenus domaines nationaux
Aubin Louis Millin's five-volume antiquarian survey, published in Paris from 1790, recorded tombs, inscriptions, statues, stained glass and carved altarpieces from abbeys and châteaux seized as national property during the Revolution. Line engravings give elevations of wall monuments with columns and heraldic cartouches, gridded sheets of narrative relief panels, and Gothic canopies rendered as clean outline suited to enlargement or vector tracing.
