At top, a horizontal panel with a row of tulips. Below, a frieze with a deer hunt in a landscape, with three mounted figures riding after a deer at left. From a series of twelve plates with rows of flowers above friezes with landscapes, etched by Cochin, published by Balthazar Moncornet in Paris in 1645, and dedicated to the goldsmith, Jean de Leins. The prints are executed in a combination of etching, for the landscape, and burin, for the flowers.
