A 1696 funeral relation published in Rome by the Apostolic Camera's printing house, describing the obsequies for King John III Sobieski of Poland at the Polish national church of St. Stanislaus, held under Cardinal Carlo Barberini. The picture is a fragment of an ornate printed border: dense black scrollwork with acanthus-like leaves, curling tendrils, and a diagonal band cutting across the corner, suggesting baroque frame ornament a designer could adapt for decorative edges.

John III Sobieski, King of Poland, 1629-1696
