Architectural drawings of the Roman theater and triumphal arch at Orange, France, ca. 1840.

Record drawings of existing conditions before and after excavation of the theater and before and after restoration of the triumphal arch. Most drawings were published in Caristie's "Monuments Antiques a Orange" (an extra illustrated copy of which is part of the collection), but many of the originals are on a larger scale, are more detailed, and are annotated with measurements. Some drawings are in color and were reproduced in black and white. Some corrected proofs and a separate chromolithograph are included.
