Description des tableaux qui ornent le grand appartement de l'Hotel de Montcalm
A descriptive catalogue of the paintings decorating the grand apartment of the Hôtel de Montcalm in Montpellier, France, published in 1836 by the Impr. d'Isidore Tournel, presumably for visitors and collectors interested in the building's art. The single picture is a small engraved vignette showing a draped female figure crowned with a laurel-and-helmet wreath, flanked by a painter's palette, brushes, a classical architectural facade and a rolled banner, above a scrolled cartouche reading ARTS. A designer could take from it a compact emblem model for arts-and-culture headers, with its symmetrical arrangement of allegorical attributes.
