Recueil de pierres gravees antiques
A 1732 Paris catalogue of antique engraved gems and cameos, compiled by Michel-Philippe Levesque de Gravelle and printed by Pierre-Jean Mariette for collectors and antiquarians. Each numbered plate gives a single etched figure — nude gods, nymphs, satyrs, sea creatures — set inside an oval or rectangular frame, offering clean outline bodies, drapery studies and ready-made medallion borders.
