This 1881 catalogue from Avignon's Musée Calvet, compiled by Augustin Deloye and printed by Seguin frères, lists the statues, busts and bas-reliefs of the Renaissance and later periods held in the museum's galleries. The two pictures are the museum's oval seal, showing a shield flanked by two eagles beneath a crown, with a ribbon inscription and the words 'Museum Calvet de la ville d'Avignon' around the rim. A designer could take from them a model for a formal civic emblem, with symmetrical heraldic composition and tidy lettering set around an oval border.
