This engraving, created by Pierre Charles Canot in 1760, is the cover page for a collection of floral bouquets. It features a delicate wreath of flowers, drawn by Jean Pillement, which surrounds the title, "Recueil de Differents Bouquets de Fleurs Invente" (Collection of Different Bouquets of Flowers Invented). Canot, a renowned French engraver, is known for his detailed and elegant style. This piece showcases the intricate detail and realistic depiction of flowers popular during the Rococo period. The cover is a testament to the artistic collaborations of the era, blending Pillement's artistic vision with Canot's masterful engraving skills.
