Projet des embellissemens de la ville et fauxbourgs de Paris
A planning proposal printed in Paris in 1756 by Guillaume Poncet de la Grave, covering city improvements for Paris and its suburbs, and aimed at architects and municipal officials. The single picture is a symmetrical ornamental cartouche of scrolling acanthus leaves framing a crowned urn with a fruit-filled basket, a style a designer could borrow for decorative frames, title panels, or heraldic-style emblems.
