Please be sure to see our many other "Art of Writing" products: This is a digitally restored detail of an 18th century engraving rrom the chapter on the Art of Writing "Art d'écrire" from Denis Diderot's “L’Encyclopédie, ou Dictionnaire des sciences, des arts et des métiers". This is a high resolution scan of the original copperplate engraving in our personal collection. About Diderot's Encyclopeaedia: The "Encyclopédie, ou Dictionnaire des sciences, des arts et des métiers" was published in Paris between1762-1777. A masterpiece of the Enlightenment, it set out all the knowledge of the day,and was a first attempt to document the techniques of mechanical production for objects used in everyday life. Scholars from around the world, including Benjamin Franklin and Thomas Jefferson submitted chapters. Denis Diderot, the chief editor of the Encyclopaedia, was a French Philosopher, man of letters, and friend of the great minds of his age including Goethe, Rousseau, and Hume. L'Encyclopédie is considered one of the principal achievements of the Age of Enlightenment and became part of the intellectual ferment in France in the lead up to the Revolution.

This card was so lovely and my granddaughter opened the card and hugged it as it had a unicorn on the front and her name And I added a picture inside of us And when her mummy Asked her who it was from she said my nanny and grandad and hugged the card she can’t read yet but knew who it was from. ❤️. Excellent quality of printing colour
