Funerailles, & diuerses manieres d'enseuelir des Rommains, Grecs, & autres nations, tant anciennes que modernes
Guichard's 1581 Lyon treatise on funeral rites and burial customs of Romans, Greeks and other peoples, printed by Jean de Tournes for a learned readership. Its pictures are small roundel emblems of consecration pyres and tiered monuments, plus an ornate historiated initial, all in crisp black line on cream paper, offering a designer compact symmetrical seals, laurel swags and classical stepped-pyramid motifs.
