    I used to have a good link to view online the book from which these etchings were taken. Anyone have a good current link?


    NO SORRY - THE FOLLOWING IS NOT THE RIGHT BOOK - NEED TO LOOK FURTHER___ Or Perhaps this is the wrong volume

    I think this is it, but not a good link yet: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Le_Antich…rcolano_Esposte

    One version: https://archive.org/details/A216167/page/n21/mode/2up

    Now I need direct links to the pages where the Epicurean materials appear. I suspect that we could go page by page through this and find many Epicurean-related aspects, so if anyone has the time to help please post in the thread below and we can create a master index.

    Changed the title of the thread from “Book of Etchings Of Articles Found In Herculaneum” to “Book of Engravings Of Articles Found In Herculaneum”.

    In the Spanish version of the article on the wikipedia page is a link to a digital version in highest definition: https://digi.ub.uni-heidelberg.de/diglit/ercolano1757bd1/0005

    Don't forget to check first: Volume 5 1767 Bronzes from Herculaneum and region, engraved and described - Part I: Busts . (I already did the mistake to start search in book I)

    https://digi.ub.uni-heidelberg.de/diglit/ercolano1767bd5/0115

    Edited once, last by Titus (March 19, 2021 at 4:00 PM).

    Wow that is a great copy! I think I did fail to understand how it is divided into volumes. Thank you Titus!

    It's quite amazing how accurate and detailed the engravings are. High technology of the 18th century.

    Moved the thread from forum Herculaneum (Physical Location) to forum Epicurean Art / Symbolism - General Discussion.
