Instruction generale pour la teinture des laines et manufactures de laine de toutes couleurs,

1671 · A Paris : De l'imprimerie de François Muguet ... · 2 pictures

A 1671 French manual on dyeing wool and woollen cloth in all colours, printed in Paris by François Muguet and aimed at dyers and cloth makers. The two pictures are small typographic and decorative pieces: a crowned royal heraldic emblem with fleurs-de-lis above a shield, and a foliate scroll ornament with a grotesque mask above the printed word INSTRUCTION in spaced capitals, useful to a designer for period title-page framing and heraldic motifs.
