    Description
    Engraving of angels in the clouds with the Christ child included in a manuscript entitled Philosophia Universalis Pertinens a Gabrielem Colleno Logicum (1694). This print was published in Paris by Pierre Landry and below the image reads text from Psalm 96: 'Adorate eum omnes angeli eius' (Adore him, all you his angels).

    This is a student notebook of Gabriel Collenno, recording the undergraduate course in logic, as taken at the University of Paris. Student notebooks of the time often include printed plates and hand-drawn images as illustrations, sometimes related,sometimes unrelated to the material.
