De la reformation du theatre
A French treatise on reforming the theatre, published in Paris in 1767 by Debure and LeBreton for readers interested in drama and public morals. Its pictures are printed ornaments: rows of scrolled strapwork bands, a central fleur-de-lis cartouche, and repeating foliate and flame-like fleurons used as section dividers, offering a designer ready-made border and rule motifs with a strong eighteenth-century French character.
