A local chronicle of Bourges and the Berry province, 1621–1694, kept by Paul, Claude and Jehan Le Large and edited by Henry Jongleux for a French antiquarian readership in 1881. The plates are small engraved ornaments — a crowned female mask flanked by leafy cornucopias, grotesque masks with winged dragons, swags, beads and drop pendants — usable as headpieces, tailpieces and symmetrical spot motifs.
