Andreae Maximiliani Fredro castellani Leopoliensis, Scriptorum seu togae & belli notationum fragmenta : accesserunt Peristromata regum symbolis expressa
A 1660 Latin emblem book by Andrzej Maksymilian Fredro, printed at Danzig (Gdansk) by the bookseller Georg Förster, and aimed at princes' education as its subject suggests. Its four framed pictures are small oval emblems, each with a Latin motto banner above a scene of hands, a book, a winged creature or a landscape, all engraved in fine crosshatched lines within ornate cartouches. A designer could borrow the compact oval-within-frame layout, the banded scroll motto, and the dense engraved shading for period-style emblematic panels.
