This image displays a circular emblem or insignia printed on a square piece of paper with a blue-grey background. The emblem is designed with a central illustration and text surrounding it along the edge within a circular border.

The central illustration features a bee skep (a type of basketry bee hive) surrounded by flying bees in a natural setting. The skep sits on a small mound or base with an opening near the bottom, where bees are depicted entering and exiting.

Along the circular border, there is a Latin inscription. At the top it reads "URGET PRAESENTIA REGIS," which can be translated as "The presence of the king urges (or presses)" and may imply the importance or influence of royal patronage. At the bottom, there is text that reads "BATIMENS DU ROY 1739," indicating "Buildings of the King 1739," suggesting that the emblem is likely related to royal buildings or properties with the date specifying the year associated with this emblem, which is 1739.

The emblem demonstrates fine line engraving work, and its style suggests it comes from the 18th century, consistent with the date provided. It might be a bookplate, a symbolic representation of ownership or association with the French royal court, or perhaps a marker for royal documents or properties related to beekeeping activities during that period.
