La philosophie des gens de cour : ou l'on enseigne d'une manière aisée & naturelle ce qu'il y a de plus curieux dans la phisique, & de plus solide dans la morale pour l'usage des personnes de qualité
A late seventeenth-century French book of philosophy and moral instruction, written by Armand de Gérard and printed in Paris in 1683 by Estienne Loyson for people of rank at court. The four pictures are small woodcut ornaments: a letter T inside a leafy oval frame and three flower baskets, rendered in dense black-and-white line work that a designer could adapt for decorative borders, initials, or vintage floral motifs.
