Dissertatio de conciliorum quorumvis definitionibus ad examen revocandis
A Latin theological dissertation by Pierre Allix, printed in Paris in 1680 for scholars of church councils, with this single picture being a small woodcut tailpiece or ornament rather than an illustration of the text. The image shows a flower basket on a plinth, with lilies and roses rendered in dense black-and-white line work that a designer could adapt for botanical or vintage decorative motifs.
