A 1654 London printing by Henry Herringman, an English account in print of a Paris court masque, Peleus and Thetis, performed by the King and nobles, with its text credited to James Howell and Francesco Buti. The pictures are ornamental printer's material: a foliate frieze of scrolls, rows of small repeated fleuron and cartouche ornaments, and a large hatched decorative initial I wrapped in leaves and curls, useful for borders, pattern repeats, and historical letterforms.
