Bibliotheque Des Artistes Et Des Amateurs is a 1766 French reference work on the sciences and fine arts compiled by Jean-Raymond de Petity for young students and general readers, held by Heidelberg University Library. Its pictures are small black-and-white engraved vignettes and a plan-and-elevation of a building, with ornamental cartouches of scrolls, foliage, crowns and rays of light that a designer could draw on for decorative borders, frames and classical motifs.
