Chronica da Companhia de Iesu, na provincia de Portugal; : e do que fizeram, nas conquistas d'este reyno, os religiosos, que na mesma provincia entràram, nos annos em que viveo S. Ignacio de Loyola, nosso fundador.
A 1645 Jesuit chronicle printed in Lisbon by Paulo Craesbeeck, written by Balthazar Telles on the Society of Jesus in Portugal and its overseas missions, aimed at a religious and scholarly readership. Its pictures are small letterpress woodcut ornaments, such as flower vases, a grotesque mask panel and a cherub cartouche with the IHS monogram, showing dense foliage, scrolls and putti that a designer could borrow for decorative borders, headpieces and tailpieces.
