Koren-bloemen is a 1672 Dutch collection of poems by Constantijn Huygens, published in Amsterdam by Johannes van Ravesteyn with engravings by Romeyn de Hooghe, Abraham Blooteling and Caspar Netscher, for a literate Dutch readership. The pictures are decorative engraved initial letters, each a large capital set among scrolling acanthus leaves, curling tendrils and foliage, which a designer could draw on for display lettering, drop caps and ornamental borders.
