A 1767 Paris edition of Ovid's Metamorphoses, printed in Latin and French by Pissot, with engraved plates of classical myth scenes in ornamental frames. The pictures show gods, nymphs and mortals in landscapes, temples and interiors, a refined eighteenth-century French engraving style a designer could draw on for classical ornament, framing and scenic composition.
