13The Image—Or from Whom (Not?) to Buy a Second-Hand Car Lambeck, who was in a position to work with Strada’s original drawings, liked them so much that he did not really question their reliability as archaeological documentation, and though Patin was more cautious, he likewise took Strada’s labours seriously. Though Strada’s volumes would remain objects of interest to Grand Tourists, such as James Boswell, their attraction for professional schol- ars soon was to fade.16 0.4.2 Works of Reference Lambeck’s, Patin’s and Cyprian’s publications assured Strada a place in many antiquarian reference works appearing during the eighteenth century, such as Johann Albert Fabricius’ Bibliographia antiquaria, a bibliography of mod- ern studies into Hebrew, Greek, Roman and (Early) Christian antiquities that was first published in Hamburg in 1713, and in Fabricius’ edition of Anselmo Banduri’s Bibliotheca Nummaria of 1719, who also refers to the manuscript in Vienna, the lost original is presumed to have been shipped to Spain in the sixteenth century where it was used in a fountain in the gardens of Aranjuez; cf. Gschwantler 1988 and Gschwantler 1993/94. 16 In his journal Boswell singled out Strada’s volumes in the Gotha library, which he saw during his visit to the Gotha court in October of 1764, ‘dressed in a suit of flowered velvet of five colours’; Boswell / Pottle 1953, p. 146.
