Declaration du Roy, pour le restablissement du Droict annuel
A royal declaration printed in Paris in 1621 under Louis XIII of France, issued by the sovereign on taxation and the restoration of the annual office fee, aimed at officials and the public. The pictures are small woodcut ornaments: a crowned heraldic shield of fleurs-de-lis within a wreath, a decorated initial L with foliage, a leafy floral frieze, and a line of French text in a serif face, offering a designer period-accurate border, initial and heraldic motifs.
