Relation abregée de la vie de Madame de Combé, institutrice de la Maison du Bon Pasteur : avec les reglemens de la Communauté
A French devotional biography from 1700 by Jean Jacques Boileau, printed in Paris by Florentin and P. Delaulne, recounting the life of Marie Madeleine de Combé, founder-teacher of the Daughters of the Good Shepherd, along with the community's rules. The four pictures are small baroque headpieces and vignettes: an emblematic shield with banners and a Latin motto, a framed scene of a man and a bull in a rococo cartouche, a caduceus-like serpent emblem among feathers, and a shepherd with sheep beneath a cherub-filled cloud. A designer could draw on their compact, symmetrical framing and the ornate scrollwork that surrounds each motif.
