Constitvciones, compiladas, hechas y ordenadas por Rodrigo de Castro
This is a 1591 Spanish ecclesiastical law code compiled by Rodrigo de Castro for the Archdiocese of Seville, printed in Seville by I. de Leon. The three pictures are printer's and bookseller's devices: a heraldic cartouche with a crowned shield and cardinal's hat, an oval emblem with a palm tree and lettering, and a bookseller's imprint from Madrid with a book and shop scene. A designer could draw on their dense engraved ornament, scrolled frames, tassels and heraldic shield layouts for period-style borders and emblems.
