Lyon dans son lustre
Title:
Lyon dans son lustre
Description:
Artist and engraver Claudine Brunand was likely related to the artist and woodcutter Michel Brunand. She worked for a number of printers and publishers in her native Lyon as well as in Germany. We know her for this charming, inventive, and marvelously original frontispiece. In a map of Lyon configured in the shape of a rampant lion, Brunand manages to incorporate each street and the city hall, along with heraldic shields and banners flying in the breeze.
