Franciscans · 1585 · En Mexico, : en casa de Pedro Ocharte. · 4 pictures

A 1585 Spanish-language rulebook of the Franciscan order's Cismontane branch, printed in Mexico City by Pedro Ocharte for friars following the statutes revised under Minister General Francisco Gonzaga. The pictures are small crude woodcuts of religious scenes and saints framed within text blocks, showing how simple block-cut figures with dense outlines and hatched clouds and ground can carry devotional meaning, useful for designers seeking early colonial print texture and hand-cut linework.
