Aesopi Phrygis Fabellae Graece et Latine : cum alijs opusculis, quorum index proxima refertur pagella
Aesopi Phrygis Fabellae is a 1534 Greek and Latin edition of Aesop's fables printed at Basel by the Frobenius press for a scholarly readership. Its pictures are historiated initial letters, woodcut capitals with figures, animals and foliage set in dense black hatching, which a designer could take as models for decorative drop caps and framed letter panels.
