Der schoene Mensch im Altertum; eine Geschichte des Koerperideals bei Aegyptern, Orientalen u. Griechen
A German art-historical survey by Heinrich Bulle, published in Munich by Hirth in 1912, tracing the ideal human body through Egyptian, Near Eastern and Greek sculpture for students of art and artistic anatomy. Halftone plates photograph statues and statuettes against flat grey or black grounds, giving isolated draped and nude figures, back views and full-length poses usable as silhouettes or figure reference.
