La Vie de Mademoiselle Le Gras : fondatrice et première supérieure de la Compagnie des Filles de la Charité, Servantes des pauvres malades
A 1676 Paris biography by Nicolas Gobillon of Louise de Marillac, founder of the Daughters of Charity, printed by A. Pralard for a devout readership. The pictures are small woodcut tailpieces and ornaments: a scrolled cartouche, a bell-shaped floral spray repeated twice, and a mask-headed shield with volutes, cut in bold black line with simple shading that suits decorative borders and headers.
