Superstitions anciennes et modernes : prejugés vulgaires qui ont induit les peuples à des usages et à des pratiques contraires à la religion
Superstitions anciennes et modernes is a 1733 French treatise by the priest Pierre Lebrun, published in Amsterdam by J.F. Bernard for a readership interested in religious practice and popular belief. Its pictures are small letterpress woodcut ornaments, a flower-filled urn flanked by acanthus scrolls and a decorative strapwork band, which a designer could draw on for classical border and header motifs.
