Mathes, W. Michael. fmo RIBRL · 1623 · En Mexico. : En la Imprenta del Bachiller Iuan de Alcaçar. · 7 pictures

A 1623 Spanish-language devotional anthology printed in Mexico by Juan de Alcaçar, honouring the saints Lucia and Petronila and dedicated to a Mexican nobleman. The pictures are small printer's ornaments: rows of scrolled fleurons, paired leaf-and-volute bands and pendant motifs set between text lines and headings. A designer could draw on them for borders, dividers and decorative rules in a period style.
