Histoire de l'entree de la reyne mere du roy tres-chrestien dans la Grande-Bretaigne : enrichie de planches
A 1639 French account, printed in London by Jean Raworth, of Marie de Médicis's state visit to Britain, written by Jean-Puget de La Serre and illustrated with engravings by Wenceslaus Hollar for a French-reading court and print-collecting audience. The plates show interiors with crowds in formal dress, a walled palace garden with clipped parterres, and a kneeling courtier before a canopied dais, giving a designer period staging, costume, and crowd-arrangement references from 1630s court ceremony.
