Bibliorum sacrorum cum glossa ordinaria
A 1603 Venetian edition of the Latin Bible with the Glossa ordinaria, a medieval commentary printed around the sacred text, compiled by Strabus, Nicholas of Lyra, Paul of Burgos and Matthias Doring for scholars and clergy. The pictures are small woodcut-style illustrations of a prophet and a diagram of a building plan with ruled walls and printed marginal text, offering a designer dense typeset pages, framing rules and an old scholarly layout to borrow from.
