Traité sur la peinture pour en apprendre la theorie, & se perfectionner dans la pratique
A 1699 French treatise on painting by Bernard Dupuy du Grez, with illustrations by Antoine Rivalz, published in Toulouse by the widow of J. Pech and A. Pech for students learning painting theory and practice. Its pictures are woodcut decorative headpieces and tailpieces: a cherub pair above a fruit swag, and horizontal friezes of scrolling acanthus, grotesque beasts and a central vase-like finial, useful for designers seeking early modern ornamental borders and cartouche motifs.
