Nivelle, Nicolas, 1556-1594, printer, Thierry, Rolin, d. 1623, printer · 1589 · Paris : N. Nivelle et R. Thierry, 1589 · 3 pictures

A French religious pamphlet printed in Paris in 1589 by printers Nicolas Nivelle and Rolin Thierry, addressed to Catholic readers on how to act against opponents of the Church. The three pictures are woodcut printer's ornaments: a decorative strapwork border, a small scrolling vine tailpiece, and an initial letter with a lion and foliage. A designer could draw on their interlacing scrollwork, grotesque animal forms, and historic woodcut ornament for period-style borders and initials.
