Éléments de l'art de la teinture : avec une description du blanchîment par l'acide muriatique oxigéné
This 1804 Paris treatise on dyeing and bleaching was written by Claude-Louis Berthollet, with his son A. B. Berthollet, and published by F. Didot for artisans and chemists working in textile dyeing. The one picture here is a circular university seal, not an illustration from the book: a tower with trees inside a ring of lettering reading North Carolina State University at Raleigh, a scan-added mark rather than part of the 1804 text. A designer could take only its strong round seal layout, with the central tower framed by curved type.
