The Old and New Testaments
A 1612 London printing of the Old and New Testaments, issued by Robert Barker and linked to Thomas Sternhold's psalter tradition, meant for Bible and psalm readers. The four pictures are decorative woodcut initial letters, one with a bold ornate I-like frame, one with a grotesque scrolled capital, one with a cross-hatched G filled with leafy foliage, and one with a scrolled T-shaped frame, showing how dense ornamental border and interlace work can be built around a single letter.
