Discours funebre, sur la mort de Louis le iuste, roy de France & de Nauarre.
A funeral discourse printed in Lyon in 1643 by I. A. Candy, written by Guillaume Gon on the death of Louis XIII, king of France and Navarre, and aimed at a French readership of that time. Its pictures are small black woodcut and printed devices: a royal coat of arms with fleurs-de-lis and crowns inside a laurel and strapwork wreath, an oval 'LI BRO LIBER' bookplate frame with interlace scrolls and initials, and a historiated initial C holding a small animal among leafy scrolls beside the text, giving a designer dense ornamental borders, heraldic motifs and calligraphic initials to adapt.
