Les Oeuvres de monsieur Sarasin
A 1663 French collected edition of the poems of Jean-François Sarasin, edited by Gilles Ménage and Paul Pellisson, published in Paris by Thomas Jolly for a literary readership. Its pictures are small letterpress ornaments: a symmetrical cartouche of scrolls and rosettes repeated across several frames, and a face-centred foliate headpiece, all cut in bold black line with a designer's eye for balance.
