La bibliothèque françoise de M. C. Sorel [microforme]

Sorel, Charles, 1602?-1674 · 1667 · Paris : Compagnie des Libraires · 17 pictures

A 1667 French bibliographic work by Charles Sorel, published in Paris by the Compagnie des Libraires and aimed at readers of French literature. The four pictures are repeated woodcut-style floral headpieces, a symmetrical arrangement of tulip-like blossoms, leafy sprays and fan-shaped foliage tapering to a large bloom at the base, with tight hatched shading that a designer could adapt for ornamental borders or botanical motifs.
