A 1601 Spanish-language history printed at Alcalá by the widow of Juan Gracián, written by Luis de Guzmán on the Jesuit missions to India, China and Japan, aimed at a readership of Spanish churchmen and readers of mission history. The four pictures are decorated woodcut initials, large ornamental capitals with interlaced foliage, scrollwork and figures set at the start of paragraphs, which a designer could use as models for illuminated-style lettering and border ornament.
