Marine militaire ou recueil des différens vaisseaux qui servent à la guerre : suivis des manoeuvres qui ont le plus de raport au combat ainsi qu'à l'ataque et la déffese des ports
A French naval manual of warships and battle manoeuvres, compiled by Ozanne and published by Chereau for military and naval readers. Its plates show a labelled three-masted ship with lettered rigging keys, a fleet of sailing vessels at sea above a French text caption, and a billowing cloud of smoke with rays. A designer could draw on the crisp hatched engraving of rigging and sails, the clear lettering system, and the stylised smoke bursts.
