This 1598 printed treaty, issued in Paris, sets out the peace terms agreed between Philip II of Spain and Henry IV of France, with the earlier 1559 Cateau-Cambrésis articles appended for royal and diplomatic readers. The single picture is a woodcut of a crowned shield bearing three fleurs-de-lis, surrounded by a looped and shell-studded border with a pendant medallion below. Designers might take from it a compact heraldic emblem model: a symmetrical shield, a crown, and a scalloped wreath suited to seals, crests, or period-style badges.
