Hadriani Iunii medici Emblemata : eiusdem ænigmatum libellus
Hadrianus Junius's Latin emblem book, printed in Antwerp in 1569 by Christophe Plantin's press, a learned collection of moral emblems for scholars and humanist readers. Each page pairs a small woodcut with a Latin motto and verse, and the pictures are compact, allegorical scenes with clear figures and simple landscapes that a designer could draw on for symbolic imagery.
