Verdedging van de Confessie der Remonstranten : Teghen de ... Beschuldiginghen [van] Antonius Walaeus ..

1627 · [S.l. : s.n.] · 1 picture

A 1627 Dutch polemical defence of the Remonstrant Confession against accusations by Antonius Walaeus, printed without a named publisher and held by Princeton Theological Seminary Library. The single picture is a decorative printer's ornament, a symmetrical headpiece of scrolling acanthus leaves rising around a central mask-like figure and grotesque animal forms. A designer might take from it the tradition of symmetrical woodcut ornament, with its interlaced scrolls and fleshy foliage, as a reference for border or header work.
