Viuat rex Carolus
A 1519 Cologne printed tract addressed to Emperor Charles V, issued by E. Cervicornus and associated with Hermann von Neuenar and Jacob Sobius, aimed at a learned and courtly readership. The pictures are woodcut initials with figures in roundels and a title page framed by heraldic shields, a nude and armoured figure flanking the text, and rich ornamental borders a designer could draw on for Renaissance letterforms and decorative framing.
