A thankfvll remembrance of Gods mercie is a 1630 London book by Bishop George Carleton, with engravings by Willem van de Passe and Friedrich van Hulsius, recounting English deliverances from Catholic plots and rebellions since Elizabeth's reign for a Protestant readership. Its small framed plates show armed scenes with Latin and English captions, and a designer might take their dense, crowded compositions, figure groupings, and caption-band typography as models for tightly packed historical narrative panels.
