Devises panegyriques pour Anne d'Austriche, reine de France
A 1667 French book of panegyric devices (emblematic mottoes) for Queen Anne of Austria, written by Léonard de Chaumelz and Nicolas Poumarède and printed in Bordeaux by Jacques Mongiron Millanges. The four pictures are decorative woodcut initial letters, a round-framed O, a C and a B, set in dense foliate borders with scrolling leaves, flowers and fruit, which a designer could use as a model for ornamental capitals and border work.
