Catalogue de l'exposition de Marie-Antoinette et son temps
An 1894 Paris exhibition catalogue by Germain Bapst, published by the Galerie Sedelmeyer, covering the art and era of Marie Antoinette for a collector and art-historical audience. The pictures are engraved ornament plates showing eighteenth-century Rococo decoration: scrolling acanthus cartouches, flower-filled urns, swags of ribbon and foliage, and symmetrical border strips a designer could adapt for decorative frames, panels and borders.
