Les emblemes d'amour diuin et humain ensemble
Les emblemes d'amour diuin et humain ensemble is a 1631 emblem book printed in Paris by Jean Messager, with text attributed to Gillis van Schoor and Philippe de Mallery, offered for devotional readers. Its pages pair small engraved scenes of cherubs, a kneeling woman and a cross with short French and Latin verses set above and below. A designer might take from them the compact framing of a central vignette within a text panel, with haloed putti and flowering plants as motifs.
