La doctrine des moeurs : ou sont representés en cent tableaux la difference des passions, qui enseignent la maniere de parvenir a la sagesse universelle
La doctrine des moeurs is a 1682 French ethics book published in Paris by Jacques Le Gras, with text by Marin Le Roy de Gomberville and engravings adapted from Otto van Veen's emblem designs. Its plates are small decorative woodcut-style ornaments, with flower arrangements, vases, and figures carrying baskets. A designer might take from them the dense, symmetrical botanical motifs and framing borders typical of seventeenth-century French print ornament.
