Anno 1637. Acta capituli prouincialis celebrati in regali conuentu sancti patris nostro Dominici de Mexico die 16. mensis maii anno D[omi]ni 1637
A 1637 Latin account of a Dominican provincial chapter held in Mexico City, printed by Juan Ruiz for the Dominican province of Santiago de México and now held by the John Carter Brown Library. The picture shows a printed page with a dense band of black decorative borders framing a woodcut of a robed saint holding a chalice and a cross, set above a block of faint text; a designer might draw on its repeating ornamental strips and the simple, sturdy saint figure as a reference for early colonial religious print.
