Le théâtre de P. Corneille
A 1668 Rouen and Paris edition of Pierre Corneille's collected plays, printed by T. Jolly, probably for French readers of seventeenth-century theatre. The pictures are small woodcut headpieces and tailpieces of stylised flowers, scrolls and a central urn or pomegranate-like form, the kind of printers' ornament a designer might borrow for symmetrical borders or dividers.
