Aristotelous Technēs rhētorikēs biblia tria. = Aristotelis De arte rhetorica libri tres
A 1538 Greek and Latin edition of Aristotle's Rhetoric, printed in Paris by Christian Wechel for scholars and students of ancient rhetoric. The picture is a woodcut historiated initial with a small figure on a decorative ground beside a column of Greek type, showing how a printed page can pair a carved letter with classical text. A designer could take from it the contrast between a dense typographic block and one ornamental capital that anchors the layout.
