Savlsaye : eglogve de la vie solitaire
Savlsaye is a 1547 pastoral eclogue by the poet Maurice Scève, printed in Lyon by Jean de Tournes with woodcut designs by Bernard Salomon for a literate French readership. The pictures are small, dense woodcuts of a rocky, wooded landscape with crowded figures, and the monogram device is a compact oval emblem a designer could adapt for a printer's or publisher's mark.
