The mirrour which flatters not : dedicated to their Maiesties of Great Britaine
The Mirrour which Flatters Not is a 1639 London moral treatise by Jean-Puget de La Serre, translated by Thomas Cary, printed by E. P. for R. Thrale and dedicated to the King and Queen of Great Britain as a guide to conduct. Its pictures are small black-and-white engravings with Latin-style captioned plates, such as Alexander and Diogenes among skulls and Saladine's shroud proclamation, plus decorative headpieces and borders a designer could adapt for frontispieces, ornamental initials and banding.
