Illustrated Companion to the Latin Dictionary/Canteriolus

Illustrated Companion to the Latin Dictionary, and Greek Lexicon (Rich, 1849)

CANTERI'OLUS (ὀκρίβας). A painter's easel; represented in the annexed engraving (Canteriolus/1.1), with the picture on it, from a Roman bas-relief, precisely similar to those still in use. The Greek term for this contrivance is well authenticated; but the Latin one here given, upon the authority of Riddle's English-Latin Dictionary, though sufficiently appropriate, wants a positive authority.
