Comprising 124 of the very best plates from the now rare original catalog, the present collection consists of an elaborate selection of styles ranging from Louis XIV, Renaissance, and Georgian to Louis XVI, Chippendale, and chinoiserie. Included are intricately rendered borders, scrolls, cartouches, and latticework; lavish floral garlands, moldings, and many other ornaments important graphics in any commercial artist's resource file.Artists, designers, woodworkers, and other craftspeople will find here a rich variety of muchneeded borders, garlands, cartouches, and other motifs all ideal for immediate, practical use.
