Inventaire general de l'histoire de France. : depuis Pharamond iusques à Lovys XIII. à present regnant. Illustré par la conference de l'Eglise & de l'Empire.
A French history of France from Pharamond to Louis XIII, written by Jean de Serres and printed in Geneva by Pierre Aubert in 1619, aimed at readers of French historical and religious controversy. Its four pictures are decorative woodcut initials: a large letter I and L framed by scrolling foliage, a grotesque mask with cherubic face and fruit, and an oval wreath of leaves around a flower, useful for ornamental borders and letterform framing.
