Definition
A description, illustration, or reproduction of carved stone work, gems, or other engraved objects; a carving or engraving.
Etymology
From Greek 'glyptein' (to carve) + 'graphein' (to write/describe). Similar to 'glyphograph' but more specifically relating to sculptural carving.
Kelly Says
Glyptographs served as an early form of scholarship—detailed rubbings and drawings of famous carved gem collections let museums and collectors study pieces without physical possession.
