Essai philosophique concernant l'entendement humain : ou l'on montre quelle est l'etendue de nos connoissances certaines, et la maniere dont nous y parvenons
This is a French translation of John Locke's philosophical essay on human understanding, published in Amsterdam by H. Schelte in 1700 and translated by Pierre Coste for a French-reading audience of philosophers and scholars. The pictures are small decorative headpieces and a tailpiece of ornamental scrollwork, with acanthus leaves, curling volutes, and a central shield, which a designer could reuse as frames, dividers, or classical border motifs.
