A late eighteenth-century French collection of engraved prints and drawings compiled by collector Jean-Louis Soulavie and published in 1783, assembled as a visual record of France's monarchs, festivals, emblems and medals. The plates show circular emblem medallions with small scenes, and architectural festival decorations such as triumphal arches, fountains, colonnades and garlanded screens drawn in fine engraved line, useful to a designer for classical ornament, cartouche framing and period monumental design.
