Abbregé chronologique, ou Extraict de l'histoire de France
Abbregé chronologique is a 1676 French history of France written by François Eudes de Mézeray and published in Paris by Louis Billaine, held in the John Adams Library at the Boston Public Library. The pictures are small black-and-white woodcut and engraved ornaments, including a lion mask garland, a crowned king's profile, and decorated initial letters L with floral frames and a rayed sun face, useful to a designer for historical border and initial-letter motifs.
