Antigrapheus, sive, Conscientia hominis : coram Serenissimo Maximiliano Electore Bavaro
Antigrapheus, sive, Conscientia hominis is a 1655 Latin devotional treatise by the Jesuit Jeremias Drexel, printed in Cologne for a Bavarian audience. Its engraved plates are emblematic, with each folio pairing a moral image with a Latin motto. For designers, the plates offer dense, finely hatched engraving with clear symbolic objects such as books, owls, and flames that can be reused as allegory.
