A 1530 legal treatise printed in Nuremberg by Johann Petreius, the work of the jurist Andrea Alciati (1492-1550) on Roman law and the Corpus juris civilis, written for scholars and lawyers. Its single picture is a woodcut printer's ornament of a nude female figure with flowing hair standing on a winged globe within a scrolled cartouche, a motif a designer could borrow for emblematic frames, title borders or classical decorative panels.
