Lucas, Paul · 1705 · 1 picture

Paul Lucas's 1705 travel account of the Levant, printed in French and held by Heidelberg University Library, recounts his voyages in the Ottoman East and the affairs of the Capuchin missionaries there. The single plate is a numbered page of oval engraved gems and cameos in black and white, showing carved profile heads and small figure scenes that a designer could borrow for classical medallion or seal motifs.
