La grant monarchie de France ..
A 1519 Paris printing of Claude de Seyssel's political treatise on the French monarchy, published by R. Chauldiere and held by the Thomas Fisher Rare Book Library. The pictures are small woodcut decorative initials, letters set on dense dotted black grounds with pale foliage, scrolls and leafy sprays cut into the letterforms, useful to a designer looking for ornamental capitals and early sixteenth-century border-style letter ornament.
