Bulletin des sciences mathématiques
A French mathematical and astronomical review published by Gauthier-Villars in Paris from 1870 under the Ministère de l'éducation nationale, written for academic mathematicians and observatory astronomers. The plates are line diagrams of circles, arcs, dashed orbital paths and lettered points, set against the volume's combed-and-veined marbled binding papers in grey and blue, offering both precise geometric linework and a ready-made textured ground.
