Cato, Marcus Porcius <Censorius> · 1525 · Kruffter, Servas · 2 pictures

A 1525 Dutch-language printing of Cato's moral maxims, published by Servas Kruffter, a Latin-school-style didactic text for readers learning through verse. The two woodcut title-border scenes show a robed figure handing a document or object to companions in a garden, and a worker carrying a load beside a wooden chest in an interior, giving designers framed narrative vignettes with clear figure poses and simple architectural settings.
