Hexastichon Sebastiani Brant in memorabiles evangelistarum figuras : quisquis percupies facile evangelica dicta servare & memori mente tenere cito ...
A 1503 Latin woodcut book of mnemonic emblem-figures attributed to Petrus von Rosenheim, with verses by Sebastian Brant, printed in Strasbourg and aimed at scholars and students learning the Gospels by memory. The pages show grotesque hybrid creatures built from animal bodies, human faces, and symbolic objects, each numbered and captioned with a Latin label. A designer might draw on their dense, crowded compositions, bold black linework on mottled paper, and the way each figure is assembled from unrelated emblems.
