Idea principis christiano-politici : 101 sijmbolis expressa
A 1651 Amsterdam emblem book by Diego de Saavedra Fajardo, with engravings by Jacob van Meurs, offering 101 symbolic images to instruct a Christian prince in political conduct. Each picture pairs a Latin or Spanish motto banner with a cartouche-framed scene of a plant, ship, or landscape. A designer might take the framed oval cartouches and banner-scroll devices as compact models for emblematic symbol layouts.
