Lettre escrite a Monseignevr le Prince
A 1614 French letter printed in Paris by bookseller Toussaint du Bray, addressed to the Prince de Condé and written by Antoine de Nervèze; the only picture here is a Boston Public Library ownership emblem, a laurel wreath enclosing two nude figures holding a book between the words 'Lux Omnium Civium' and the 'Of the City of Boston 1852-1878' legend. The scan's only illustration is a library seal rather than an image from the book, so a designer would take from it only the laurel-wreath framing and symmetrical classical figures as ornament.
