Jardin de plantes: la ménagerie et la Vallée Suisse en estampes$dtexte illustrée de 140 vignettes sur bois
A French illustrated book of 1857 edited by Hippolyte Pauquet and Jean-Adolphe Bocquin, issued to accompany the Paris Jardin des Plantes menagerie and its Swiss Valley, with 140 wood-engraved vignettes. The engravings are small, plain and naturalistic, showing mammals in profile on bare ground, so a designer could take their clean contour lines and hatched shading as a model for animal studies.
