Gottfrid Arnolds Unparteyische Kirchen- und Ketzer-Historie : von Anfang des Neuen Testaments biss auff das Jahr Christi 1688
A German church history by Gottfried Arnold, printed in Frankfurt am Main in 1700 by Thomas Fritsch, covering Christian history and heresies from the New Testament to 1688. The four pictures are decorative woodcut initials, each a large letter wrapped in dense, looping scrollwork with bold black strokes against open paper, which a designer could take as a model for combining heavy letterforms with fine filigree.
