Eusebii Cæsarie[n]sis episcopi chronico[n]:

Eusebius, of Caesarea, Bishop of Caesarea, approximately 260-approximately 340 · 1518 · In ... Parisiorum Academia : Henricus Stephan[us] · 4 pictures

This is a 1518 Paris edition of Eusebius of Caesarea's chronicle, a historical chronology printed by Henricus Stephanus for scholars and readers of Latin history. Its pictures are letters and text blocks in Renaissance printing: large historiated initials with foliate and grotesque ornament, dense two-column Latin type, and a heraldic shield with scrolling acanthus. A designer could take the decorative capitals, scroll borders, and dense text-column layouts as period models for headers and page framing.
