Recueil d'antiquités égyptiennes, étrusques, greques et romaines
A multi-volume antiquarian catalogue of Egyptian, Etruscan, Greek and Roman objects compiled by the comte de Caylus and issued in Paris by Desaint & Saillant from 1752 for collectors and scholars. Line engravings show statuettes, gems, bronzes and figurines numbered on blank grounds, with front and back views, oval cameo insets and scale bars useful as isolated figure motifs.
