Arrest du Conseil d'État du roi, qui accorde une modération des droits d'entrée à Paris sur les gazes : du 8 juillet 1781 : extrait des registres du Conseil d'Etat
This is a 1781 Paris royal council decree, printed by P.G. Simon, printer to the Parliament, lowering entry duties on gauze textiles entering the city. The one picture is a decorative printer's headpiece of scrolling acanthus leaves, a central shield with fleurs-de-lis, a putto and a small dated cartouche, which suggests a classical ornament panel for framing a title or dividing a page.
