Recueil des oeuvres de Gille-Marie Oppenord ... contenant deux mille motifs avec fragments de consoles, agrafes, cartels ... à l'usage des architectes et décorateurs, joailliers et orfèvres, ébénistes ...
A decorative ornament pattern book by Gilles-Marie Oppenord, engraved by Gabriel Huquier, published in Paris in 1880 as a reissue of eighteenth-century designs for architects, decorators, jewellers, goldsmiths and cabinetmakers. Its plates show interior architectural schemes with the pictures set in church-like chambers, altars and wall panels, and a designer could take from them the structure of framed panels, scrolled cartouches, pilasters and figure-filled niches that organise a decorative field.
