La vie de la seraphique mere sainte Terese de Iesus, fondatrice des Carmes déchaussez & des Carmelites déchaussées

Brunand, Claudine, 1630-1674 · 1670 · A Lyon : Chez la veuûe d’Aimé Brunand, en Belle Cour proche St. Joseph, 1669 · 17 pictures

A devotional life of Saint Teresa of Avila, written in French by Claudine Brunand and printed at Lyon in 1669 or 1670 for a Carmelite readership. Its framed copperplate engravings show the saint in visions, with a Latin caption beneath each, and a designer could borrow their oval-free rectangular frames, cloud-and-putto compositions, and dense cross-hatched shading.
