A 1639 French legal decree issued by the Parlement of Paris and printed by A. Estiene in Paris, addressed to those nominated by the king to bishoprics, abbeys and other benefices. The picture is a large decorated initial V with a woven vine-and-leaf border and a tangle of ornamental scrollwork, a printer's ornament a designer could adapt for capital letters, frames or borders in a historical typographic style.
