The stripping of Ioseph, or The crueltie of brethren to a brother. : In a sermon before His Maiestie at White-Hall,
A 1625 sermon by Dr. Robert Wilkinson, printed in London by William Stansby for Henry Holland and George Gibbs, preached before King James at Whitehall on the biblical story of Joseph's brothers and their cruelty. The pictures are black-and-white woodcut ornaments: strapwork headpieces, a decorative initial, and a shield with ships and the motto DEUS INDICA, which a designer could draw on for heraldic, nautical, or pattern-based work.
