Many different designs to inspire anyone that wants to recreate neo classic or empire motifs. The images aren’t very detailed so some artist skill is needed to refine them. At least that’s my opinion
Alcamenes Efthymiadis –
This book is filled with neoclassical designs that I use as patterns for my woodworking, intarsia and inlaying. The only thing that I didn’t like in this book is that sometimes the designs appear grotesque and not as realistic/idealistic as neoclassical designs should be.
