De l'usage des passions
A 1664 Paris treatise on the passions by Jean-François Senault, published by P. Le Petit, a philosophical work on emotions written for a learned French readership. Its single picture is a small printed ornament: a symmetrical woodcut fleuron of acanthus-like scrolls rising from a grotesque mask with a beard, a useful model for decorative headpieces and symmetrical border motifs in period style.
