"Contenant les procédés les plus nuveaux (sic) pour imprimer les étoffes de coton, de lin, de laine et de soie, et pour colorer la surface de toutes sortes de papiers." Technical information on the printing of wall papers from the early 19th century is sparse. The wall paper section of this book contains a section on marbling paper and has been noted by Richard Wolfe: "In Chapter III of the second part, from pages 263 to 269 there is a description of the atelier of the marbler, with a discussion of his utensils and supplies (including gum, ox-gall, etc) and directions on the application of colors and the making of patterns." - Marbled paper, p. 219, note 7. The two folding plates, which contain a total of 16 figures, include two of scenic wallpapers: fig 15, "Plafond en papier peint, representant la Toilette de Venus" and fig. 16, "L'un des tableaux de la collection mythologique exécute in papier peint, répresentant Venus et Diane." (Charles Wood, cat. 167, # 171).
