A 1612 Paris printed account by Honoré Laugier, Sieur de Porchères, describing festivities in the Place Royale for the royal marriage proclamations of Louis XIII, written for a French courtly readership. The pictures are repeated decorative initial letters, a large C and an E, framed by scrolling foliage, acanthus leaves, and grotesque masks in black woodcut-style line, which a designer could borrow for ornamental capitals and border frames.
