S. Aurelii Augustini Hipponensis Episcopi operum ..
A 1596 Latin edition of the works of Saint Augustine, Bishop of Hippo, printed in Geneva by Jacob Stoer for a scholarly and clerical readership. Its pictures are woodcut printers' ornaments: a cherub head flanked by cornucopias and scrollwork, and repeated horizontal bands of interlaced foliage with a central mask, useful to a designer for border and headpiece patterns.
