Christyn, Jean Baptiste · 1769 · chez J. F. Bassompierre, père · 26 pictures

A French-language 1769 topographical book by Jean Baptiste Christyn, published by J. F. Bassompierre, père, describing the Low Countries regions of Brabant, Limburg, Mechelen, Guelders, Namur, Artois and part of Flanders. The engraved plates show cathedrals and churches drawn in elevation with careful architectural detail and small figures in the foreground. A designer might borrow their clean line work, the sharp Gothic tracery and the balanced, documentary views of civic buildings.
