Edict du Roy sur la pacification des troubles, contenant confirmation, ampliation, & declaration, tant des precedents Edicts sur ledit aict, mesmes en l'an 1577, que des Articles arrestez en la Conference de Nerac ...
This is a 1581 Paris printing by Fédéric Morel of a French royal edict on pacifying religious troubles, issued under the king's authority and addressed to the kingdom's subjects. Its pictures are small woodcut ornaments: a foliate border with putti, a historiated initial H with grotesque figures, a decorated initial A with floral roundels, and a crowned shield of fleurs-de-lis within scrollwork, useful to a designer for compact heraldic and printer's-ornament motifs.
