Catalogue des objets du Musée des Armures de S. M. La Reine / reproduits en photographie par J. Laurent
A photographic catalogue of objects in the Royal Armoury of Madrid, issued by the Real Armería de Madrid in 1868 for the Queen's armour museum and reproduced by photographer J. Laurent. The single picture is an engraved heraldic achievement, a crowned shield with quartered arms flanked by scrolled mantling and a ribbon-like base, reproduced in fine black linework. A designer could take from it the dense cross-hatched engraving style and the symmetrical shield-and-crown structure used for emblems and seals.
