A 1666 French agricultural treatise printed in Paris by D. Langlois le Ieune, written by Gabriel Calloet-Querbrat to show landowners how livestock and land could yield more revenue for the kingdom. Its pictures are small woodcut and engraved plates: a decorative fleur-de-lis cartouche border with putti, a rack-like frame with wheels for a farm device, and a sideways engraving of named cattle, useful for designers wanting period agricultural or ornamental motifs.
