Institutio Christianae religionis
Institutio Christianae religionis is a 1612 Geneva theological work by Jean Calvin, printed by Esaiam le Preux for readers of Reformed doctrine. The pictures are decorative printer's initials: a tall foliate panel, a Q enclosing a grotesque mask, and two D initials with scrolling acanthus and a bird in an oval, all in dense black woodcut line that suggests strong display letters for historical or devotional typography.
