A set of etched plates published in Paris in 1644 by Abraham Bosse, reproducing Paolo Farinati's designs of small cupids, flying angels and children for decorating pediments, doors and other architectural spaces. The pictures show plump winged putti wrestling a mask, riding a basket of fruit, and flying with palm fronds, drawn in fine parallel hatching that a designer could borrow for classical ornament or cherub motifs.
