Orvs Apollo de Ægypte De la signification des notes hieroglyphiques des Aegyptiens : cest a dire des figures par les quelles ilz escripuoient leurs mysteres secretz, & les choses sainctes & diuines
Horapollo's Hieroglyphica, a 1543 Paris edition translated by Ian Martin with woodcuts attributed to Jean Cousin and Jean Goujon, explaining Egyptian hieroglyphs for French readers. The small square woodcuts show emblematic scenes of animals, plants and landscapes, each framed as a self-contained image; a designer might borrow their compact, hatched line work and the way a single symbolic motif sits in a plain setting.
