About the Item

Renaissance Panel Ornament – 16th Century Decorative Design, Plate LXX This intricate and richly colored plate, marked XVIe Siècle (16th century), is Plate LXX from the renowned *L'Ornement Polychrome* series published by Firmin-Didot in Paris. Lithographed by Picard, the sheet compiles a vibrant collection of decorative panel motifs typical of French Renaissance interior design, heraldic art, and illuminated manuscripts. The composition features an array of rectangular and curvilinear panels adorned with scrollwork, grotesques, cartouches, arabesques, and coats of arms, unified by their vivid color palette and precise symmetry. The colors include deep blues, ruby reds, rich golds, soft whites, and touches of emerald green, contrasting against black filigree and ivory backgrounds. A notable motif is the crowned letter “F” that appears multiple times, likely referring to King Francis I of France, a central patron of Renaissance art and architecture. These regal insignia are framed by elaborate borders of stylized foliage, palmettes, acanthus, and mythical creatures, creating a luxurious and ceremonial impression. Other panels incorporate Renaissance grotesques—playful symmetrical motifs with hybrid figures and floral scrolls—as well as urns, medallions, and intricate floral tracery. The overall style reflects the influence of Italian ornamentation imported to France in the early 1500s, harmonized with the French love of heraldry and royal symbolism. This plate serves as a high-quality reference for historians, designers, and collectors interested in Renaissance decorative arts, especially the fusion of ornamental architecture and manuscript tradition. Condition: Excellent. Colors strong and vibrant, some minor age toning in the margins but the image area is clean and well-preserved. Framing tips: A gilded frame with a deep red or royal blue mat would elevate the regal and ornamental nature of this design. Ideal for library walls, design studios, or collectors of heraldic or Renaissance art. Technique: Chromolithograph Maker: Picard (lith.), Firmin-Didot Frères, Paris, c.1869
