L'explication de l'edit de Nantes, de M. Bernard. Avec de nouvelles observations, & les nouveaux edits, declarations & arrests donnez jusqu'à present, touchant la religion pretenduë reformée
A 1683 French legal commentary published in Paris by A. Dezallier, explaining the Edict of Nantes and later royal decrees on the Protestant religion for legal readers. Its four pictures are decorative woodcut headpieces and tailpieces: a symmetrical flower-and-basket strip repeated twice, a heavy black foliage urn with scrolls and drops, and a square initial L framed by flowers and leaves, useful for borders, dividers and historical ornament.
