Vint sermons de Iean Daillé : prononcés à Charenton sur certains jours et certains temps de l'année.
A 1658 French sermon collection by Jean Daillé, printed in Geneva by Pierre Chouët for a Protestant readership, as the title's mention of Charenton suggests. Its pictures are four versions of the same square decorative initial C, a dense woodcut with a large letter outlined over a stippled ground of leaves, flowers and tendrils. A designer could take from them a model for a framed capital letter built from foliage and a dotted background.
