La pyrotechnie de Hanzelet lorrain, ou sont representez les plus rares & plus appreuuez secrets des machines & des feux artificiels, propres pour assieger, battre, surprende & deffendre toutes places
A 1630 French military treatise by Jean Appier-Hanzelet, printed at Pont-à-Mousson by I. and Gaspard Bernard, setting out siege machines and artificial fireworks for attacking and defending fortified places. The four pictures are woodcut-style engravings of machines: a wheeled ladder-and-rope device, a geared winch on a wooden frame, a pulley-and-ladder rig on a platform, and a wheel of cones and rockets. Designers could draw on their stark line work, hatching and clear mechanical diagrams for technical or historical graphics.
