A handbook of legendary and mythological art
A reference handbook of Christian and classical iconography compiled by Clara Erskine Clement and published by Hurd and Houghton in New York in 1872, for artists, students and museum visitors identifying saints, gods and their attributes. Line engravings show single standing or seated figures in heavy drapery, each with an identifying emblem — cross, dragon, book, pen, palm — against blank ground.
