Mélanges d'archéologie, d'histoire et de littérature: Collection de mémoires sur l'orfévrerie ... : 3
This is a French archaeology miscellany, volume 3, by Charles Cahier and Arthur Martin, published in 1853 and drawn from a Heidelberg University Library copy, with its plates aimed at scholars of medieval goldwork and church art. The pictures are outline engravings of a church floor plan, a reliquary-style ornamental panel, a carved lamb and inscribed bands, showing dense geometric borders, animal and figure motifs, and tight Latin lettering that a designer could draw on for medieval pattern work.
