Le guide fidele de la vraie gloire : presenté à monseigneur le duc de Bourgogne, instruisant ce jeune prince des choses qu'il doit croire, demander, pratiquer, frequenter, et eviter pour être roy pendant tous les siecles ...
A 1688 Paris devotional and moral guide, published by Pierre Landry and written by André Thomas Barenger and others for the young Duke of Burgundy, the heir to the French throne. Its engravings each pair a biblical or moral scene with a French caption in a scroll below. The pictures are finely cut line engravings with dense crowds, draped curtains, classical columns and clear narrative gestures, useful for a designer studying period baroque book framing and tableau-style composition.
