Histoire ecclésiastique.

Goujet, Claude-Pierre, 1697-1767 · 1691 · A Paris : Chez Jean Mariette, ruë Saint Jacques, aux Colomnes d'Hercules · 2 pictures

Histoire ecclésiastique is an ecclesiastical history printed in Paris by Jean Mariette, with the text attributed to Claude-Pierre Goujet and dated 1738 in the record, for readers of church history. The two pictures are an engraved royal crown with fleurs-de-lis framed by laurel sprays, and a crowded engraved scene of a robed missionary raising a cross while onlookers gather under palms, captioned in French; a designer could take the crest's symmetrical ornament and the dense, hatched linework of the crowd scene.

Imprint 1738
