A 1617 Paris pamphlet printed by Jean Sara, written as a mock testament and dialogue about the assassinated courtier Concino Concini, marshal of France, and aimed at the public of the time. The two pictures are typographic ornaments: a dense black scrolled arabesque medallion with curling foliate tendrils, and a large decorated initial C filled with acanthus leaves and scrollwork beside a few lines of italic text, useful to a designer for historic border, frame and capital-letter ideas.
