An exposition of the Creed
An exposition of the Apostles' Creed by John Pearson, a seventeenth-century theological work printed in London in 1683 by J.M. for J. Williams. The two pictures are a circular University of California seal from a later library scan, which is not part of the book, and a decorative headpiece of scrolling foliage, birds and a central urn-like vessel. The headpiece offers a designer a dense, symmetrical border pattern with stylised flowers and paired birds.
