Réimpression de la nouvelle iconologie Historique: dédiée aux artistes
A reprint of Jean-Charles de La Fosse's Nouvelle iconologie historique, dedicated to artists, issued in 1911 from an earlier French edition and preserved by Heidelberg University Library. The plates are engraved decorative designs of trophies, cartouches, urns, and ornamental monuments built from classical and emblematic objects, offering a designer ready-made arrangements of symbolic props and architectural framing for ornament, cartouches, and allegorical compositions.
