Calendrier de la Cour, tiré des éphémérides, pour l'année mil sept cent soixante-dix-neuf : contenant le lieu du soleil, son lever, son coucher, sa déclinaison, le lever de la lune & son coucher, etc ...
A small 1779 almanac printed in Paris by the widow Hérissant, the Calendrier de la Cour, which gives the sun's position, rising and setting times, and moon data for the year, aimed at the royal court and its readers. The single picture is the gilt-tooled green leather binding, with a central oval medallion of radiating fan lines flanked by scrolled foliage and acanthus corners, a useful reference for designers wanting eighteenth-century French ornament, gold stamping and symmetrical frame layouts.
