Speculum disciplinae ad novitios / Epistola continens XXV memorialia quae quasi regula sunt omnium pie et spiritualiter in Christo vivere volentium

Bonaventura (Pseudo) [ = Bernardus a Bessa] · 1504 · Jean Lambert pour Denis Roce · 1 picture

This is a 1504 printed religious treatise for novices, published in Paris by Jean Lambert for Denis Roce, with the title in a Latin rubric. The pictures are a single woodcut printer's device framed by a gold-and-black border, showing two winged griffins holding a shield bearing a sword-like emblem beneath a flowering branch, with a dog or hound at the base; a designer might take its symmetrical heraldic layout, banded border lettering, and dense hatched engraving as a model for emblem-style marks.
