Informacion en derecho. : En defensa de la exempcion absoluta que las religiones tienen de los ordinarios, y de la especial de que los doctrinantes religiosos no sean por ellos visitados de costumbres, ni examinados en el idioma.
A 1621 legal argument printed in Mexico by Diego Garrido for the Franciscan Province of the Twelve Apostles of Peru, defending clerical exemptions from diocesan oversight in missions to Indigenous peoples. The five pictures are printer's ornaments and headpieces: a strapwork cartouche with grotesque heads, a large historiated initial L with a foliate thistle-like form, a symmetrical scrolled panel with pendant motifs, and an oval frame around a standing Virgin with a halo and radiating light, all in crisp black woodcut that suits designers seeking early modern decorative borders and initials.
