Doctrine meurtriere des Jesuites preschée par leur Pére Octavius de Hollande

1690 · Bruges, Jaques le Noir · 2 pictures

A polemical pamphlet printed in Bruges in 1690 by Jaques le Noir, attacking the Jesuits through the preaching of Octave d'Hollande, and held by Duke University Libraries. The two pictures are small printers' ornaments: a square scrolled corner piece of foliage and volutes in heavy black ink, and a circular seal reading Universitas Dubiana, Eruditio et Religio around a cross with rays over a laurel wreath. A designer could take from them the compact, symmetrical framing of baroque scrollwork and the classic emblem format of a seal with ribbon lettering.
