This is a 1685 drawing manual, L'Art de Desseigner, first written by Jean Cousin and revised and enlarged by the Paris engraver François Jollain for students learning to draw. Its plates set out heads in profile and frontal views with construction lines, proportion grids and measured facial thirds, which a designer can use as a clear reference for head construction and figure proportion.
