Vignettes of Cupids playing and working. Above, according to Visconti, this curious image shows three cupids making Vittae, small scalloped ribbons to decorate temples, victims and religious objects. Below, two genii enjoy fishing with rods. Copperplate engraved by Tommaso Piroli from his own "Antichita di Ercolano" (Antiquities of Herculaneum), Rome, 1789. Italian artist and engraver Piroli (1752-1824) published six volumes between 1789 and 1807 documenting the murals and bronzes found in Heraculaneum and Pompeii.
