   vine. See {Vine}, and cf. {Vinette}.]
   1. (Arch.) A running ornament consisting of leaves and
      tendrils, used in Gothic architecture.

      any picture, as an engraving, a photograph, or the like,
      which vanishes gradually at the edge.

Vignette \Vi*gnette"\, v. t.
   To make, as an engraving or a photograph, with a border or
   edge insensibly fading away.
