Connoissance et culture parfaite des belles fleurs. Des Tulipes rares, des anémones extraordinaires, des oeillets fins et des belles oreilles d'ours panachées
Connoissance et culture parfaite des belles fleurs is a 1696 gardening treatise printed in Paris by Charles de Sercy, written in French for cultivators and collectors of flowers. Its pictures are text-only pages in French, a title page crediting the author as royal controller of buildings, arts and manufactures, and a marbled cover with a ruler scale, so a designer might take its classic typographic layout, decorative marbled paper and early modern French book typography.
