Edictum imperiale [Caroli V] contra regem Gallum (12 juillet 1521)

1521 · [s.n.] · 6 pictures

A 1521 imperial edict issued under Charles V against the French king, printed by an unnamed publisher and held by the Bibliothèque Sainte-Geneviève in Paris, a library serving scholars of law and jurisprudence. The pictures show a gilt-stamped cover bearing a coat of arms beneath a cardinal's hat and tasselled cords, plus two later library seals reading Bibliothèque Sainte-Geneviève around an SG monogram. A designer might take the gold-tooled heraldic medallion on marbled leather as a model for formal emblem or seal work.
