A 1618 Paris bird book by naturalist Pierre Belon du Mans, published by Hierosme de Marnee, with French verse captions beneath each woodcut of a bird on a branch or ground. The pictures are plain black-and-white engravings showing single birds in profile with simple botanical settings, useful to a designer for clean, centred natural-history figure compositions and lettered verse layouts.
