Lyon dans son lustre
Subject
A frontispiece depicting a lion with map elements of Lyon, Germany created by artist and engraver Claudine Brunand
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."
