A Latin funeral oration by Francesco Venturi, Bishop of S. Severo, printed by the Giunta Press in Florence in 1610 for the funeral of Henry IV of France and Navarre. The pictures are woodcut printer's ornaments and a coat-of-arms device: a fleur-de-lis vase enclosed in an oval cartouche with scrolling foliage and putti, and a crowned shield with fleurs-de-lis and a cross within a wreath and strapwork border, useful for designers wanting Renaissance-style ornamental framing and heraldic emblems.

Henry IV, King of France
