Description de l'arc dressé par les soins du Souuerain Senat de Savoye : pour l'entrée de leurs Altesses Royales à Chambery
A 1663 description of a triumphal arch erected at Chambéry for the entry of Duke Charles Emmanuel II of Savoy, written in French by Claude-François Menestrier and printed at Lyon by Pierre Guillimin. The pictures here are four decorative woodcut initials, some with foliage, scrollwork and flowers inside a border, which a designer could use as ready-made historic capitals for display type.
