A 1625 Latin chronicle of the Franciscan reform, printed at Ingolstadt by Wilhelm Eder and written by Marianus de Orscelar, is a folio volume for a religious readership, illustrated with 28 engraved plates. Its pictures are dense, multi-tier engravings with Dutch and Latin captions beneath, showing architecture, kneeling figures and crowds that a designer could use for historical scene layouts and panel compositions.
