Relation de ce qui s'est passé dans le pays des Hurons en l'annee 1636. Enuoyée à Kébec au r.p. Paul le Ieune superieur de la mission de la Compagnie de Iesus, en la Nouuelle France
A 1637 Jesuit relation printed in Paris by Sebastien Cramoisy, written by Jean de Brébeuf for the superior of the Jesuit mission in New France, reporting on the Huron country in 1636. The single picture is a heraldic bookplate, not an illustration from the text: a shield with three crescent-like charges and a chevron, a bird crest, scrolling mantling, and a banner reading 'Gaudeo' above the printed name 'John Carter Brown'. A designer might take its symmetrical, engraved armorial style, with stippled field and scrolled frame, as a model for ex libris or seal work.
