Ova paschalia sacro emblemate inscripta descriptaq[ue],

Stengel, Georg, 1584-1651 · 1634 · Monachii [i.e. Munich, : Apud Nicolam Henricum electoralem typographum] · 1 picture

Ova paschalia is an emblem book by Georg Stengel, printed in Munich in 1634 by the electoral printer Nicolaus Henricus, with Easter-themed emblems for a devotional readership. The one picture here is only a library bookplate, a red ornamental border framing the John Carter Brown Library acquisition notice, so the designer's takeaway is the decorative red scrollwork border and classic centred serif typography rather than any illustration.
