Histoire ecclésiastique.

Goujet, Claude-Pierre, 1697-1767 · 1691 · A Paris : Chez Jean Mariette, ruë Saint Jacques, aux Colomnes d'Hercules · 3 pictures

This is a French ecclesiastical history printed in Paris by Jean Mariette, attributed to Claude-Pierre Goujet, with a 1738 imprint, held by the John Carter Brown Library. The pictures are small engraved headpieces and a scene: one ornamental frame of drapery and a decorative cartouche with foliage and a central emblem, and a crowded interior assembly at the Colloque de Poissy with robed figures and a central raised group. A designer might take from them the scrolled baroque cartouche and ribbon framing, and the dense 18th-century engraving of formal gatherings.

Imprint 1738
