Fagnani, Prospero, 1588-1678, Haeredes Joannis Widenfelt, Friessem, Johann Wilhelm, 1646-1700 · 1676 · Coloniae Agrippinae : Apud haeredes Ioannis Widenfelt · 7 pictures

A 1676 Latin canon law commentary on the Decretals, printed in Cologne by the heirs of Johann Widenfelt for scholars and clergy. Its four pictures are decorative printed ornaments: a scrolled frieze repeated twice, a central cartouche with a putto among foliage and scrolls, and a large initial C filled with interlaced strapwork and curls, all in dense black line suited to historical border or initial-letter inspiration.
