Illustrium scriptorum religionis Societatis Iesu catalogus

Ribadeneyra, Pedro de, 1526-1611 · 1609 · Lugduni : Apud Io. Pillehotte ... · 9 pictures

A 1609 Lyon catalogue of writers from the Society of Jesus, compiled by Pedro de Ribadeneyra, a Spanish Jesuit, for members of the order and readers of religious history. Its pictures are printed woodcut ornaments: a strip of interlaced scrolls and winged angels framing the IHS monogram with rays, and a central cartouche of a face flanked by cornucopias spilling fruit, which a designer could borrow for symmetrical border and header frames.
