Eloges et discours sur la triomphante reception du roy en sa ville de Paris, apres la reduction de la Rochelle : accompagnez des figures, tant des arcs de triomphe que des autres preparatifs
A 1629 Paris publication by Jean Baptiste de Machault, with engravings by Abraham Bosse and printed by Pierre Rocolet, celebrating King Louis XIII's triumphal entry into Paris after the fall of La Rochelle. The pictures are engraved ornamental headpieces, strapwork cartouches, and historiated initials showing scrolls, foliage, putti, and classical figures in dense, symmetrical arrangements. A designer could take from them a model for framed decorative borders, symmetrical emblem panels, and drop-cap letters built from figures and vines.
