R.D. Magistri Petri Lombardi Novariensis Episcopi Parisiensis : sententiarum libri IV. Quibus uniuersæ theologiæ summa continetur
A 1632 Latin theology textbook by Peter Lombard, Bishop of Paris, published in Mainz by Hermann Mylius Birckmann, and collected by John Adams. The pictures are woodcut decorative initials and a printer's ornament in a dense, scrolling early-modern style, with foliate curls, interlace and a central cartouche with tassels that a designer could borrow for letterforms and framing devices.
