Des principes de l'architecture, de la sculpture, de la peinture et des autres arts qui en dependent : avec un dictionnaire des terms propres à chacun de ces arts
André Félibien's treatise and dictionary of architecture, sculpture, painting and related crafts, printed in Paris by the Coignard house in 1690 for artists, builders and patrons learning the vocabulary of each trade. Copperplate engravings lay out hand tools, clamps, lathes, saws and workshop scenes in lettered rows on open plates, giving designers clean outline silhouettes and a working shop interior in hatched shadow.
