Corpus juris canonici notis illustratum, Gregorij XIII. iussu editum : complectens Decretum Gratiani, Decretales Gregorij Papae IX., Sextum Decretalium Bonifacij Papae VIII., Clementinas, Extrauagantes Ioannis Papae XXII., Extrauagantes communes
This is a 1661 edition of the Catholic Church's canon law, the Corpus juris canonici, edited by Antonio Naldi and published in Lyon by Laurent Anisson for scholars and clergy. The pictures are small woodcut decorations: a jug framed in a cartouche, a scrolled headpiece with a face, and two historiated initials, a P with a crouching figure and a C with a standing woman, all in dense black line on cream paper, useful for designers wanting baroque ornament and framing devices.
