Abbregé du procez... entre Maistre Itier François Chastelain... Chanoine de l'eglise de Paris, appelant comme d'abus contre les Doyen, chanoines et Chapitre de la dite Eglise
A 1652 French legal factum printed in Paris by Jean Roger, setting out a canon's appeal against the cathedral chapter of Notre-Dame. The pictures are repeated woodcut headpieces and tailpiece borders, not illustrations of the case. Their dense scrolling foliage, a central grotesque mask, and birds among vines show a designer period ornament built from symmetrical strips.
