Sermão dos passos
A Portuguese sermon on the Stations of the Cross by Antonio de Sá, printed in Coimbra in 1689 at the press of Joseph Ferreyra for the bookseller João Antunes, a Good Friday devotional text. The single picture is an engraved coat of arms with a crest of a fox-like animal above a shield bearing a chevron, three figures, and a scroll reading GAUDEO, set in scrolling acanthus ornament that a designer might borrow for heraldic or armorial motifs.
