Platonis opera quae extant omnia
A 1578 edition of Plato's collected works, edited by Henri Estienne and translated by Jean de Serres, printed by Henri Estienne in Geneva for scholars and readers of Greek philosophy. Its pictures are decorative printers' ornaments: horizontal bands of scrolls, foliage, and interlaced cartouches in engraved line, which a designer could draw on for border strips, filigree dividers, and Renaissance-style ornamental framing.
