A 1684 Versailles dissertation by Pierre Rainssant on twelve medals struck for the secular games of the emperor Domitian, written for a learned audience of numismatists and antiquaries. The four engraved plates show reproductions of Roman medallions with circular frames, laurel wreaths, and small temple and altar scenes with figures in togas, which a designer might take as models for classical roundels, seals, and emblem layouts.
