Page of book containing 185 leaves with a collection of lithographs, aquatints, engravings, and other media, with ornamental designs published by Fleury Chavant in Paris, part of the publication "Guide du Dessinateur de l'industrie: une macédoine de dessins variés , tels que fleurs, ornemens, etc. ... Ouvrage destiné aux fabricants et dessinateurs de soieries... et Papiers Peints..." This plate contains ornamental designs with bundles of stylized flowers and leaves. On the lower left corner of the sheet is a bundle with undulating branches with stylized flowers and scrolling paisley leaves, rendered with stipples. Around it are three smaller designs: a simple, thin bundle with scrolling branches and small, stylized flowers and leaves, a second one formed around a scrolling motif with thin branches with stylized flowers and leaves, and the third with three large, stylized flowers and branches with smaller leaves. The designs are executed with black ink on thin, light brown paper.
