A Spanish-language biography of the hermit Gregorio López, the Mexican-based holy man, written by Francisco de Losa and printed in Madrid in the 1650s for a bookseller's trade, with a later private owner's ownership mark. The single picture is a heraldic coat of arms: a shield with a chevron and three small figures, topped by a crest and a flourished scroll bearing a motto, rendered in fine line engraving with ornate scrolling foliage. A designer could take from it the dense ornamental framing of an armorial bookplate, with its flowing acanthus scrolls, cloud-like mantling, and banner lettering.
