Edict dv Roy, portant creation de vingt-deux bureaux & sieges des eleus en la prouince de Languedoc.
This is a 1629 royal edict from France creating twenty-two offices of elected officials in the Languedoc province, printed in Paris by A. Estiene, P. Mettayer and C. Prevost for administrators and the public. Its two pictures are small woodcut printer's ornaments: a crowned coat of arms with fleur-de-lis and a decorated initial letter with foliage and a flower, both with dense, crisp black linework that suits heraldic emblems, decorative capitals and classical borders.
