Les meditations metaphysiqves de René Des-cartes, tovchant la premiere philosophie dans lesquelles l'existence de Dieu, & la distinction réelle entre l'ame & le corps de l'homme, sont demonstrées
A 1647 Paris edition of Descartes's metaphysical meditations on first philosophy, published by La Veuve I. Camusat and P. le Petit and edited with French translation and commentary by Clerselier and the Duc de Luynes. The four pictures are repeated head-piece ornaments of a horizontal strip with a central grotesque mask flanked by scrolling foliage and curling volutes, a useful model for symmetrical border and banner design.
