Les reioüissances de la paix, auec vn recueil de diuerses pieces sur ce sujet
Les réjouissances de la paix is a 1660 festival treatise printed at Lyon by Benoist Coral, written by Claude-François Menestrier with engravings after designs by Thomas Blanchet and Germain Audran, and intended for readers of the celebrations marking the 1659 peace. The pictures are small, crisp copperplate engravings of ornamental pedestals, triumphal arches and allegorical statues drawn as festival structures, with stacked masonry blocks, flags, lion reliefs and winged figures that a designer could adapt for stage sets, monuments or decorative frontispieces.
