A 1760 Madrid catalogue of Arabic manuscripts held at the Escorial monastery library, printed by Antonius Perez de Soto for scholars and librarians. Its pictures are woodcut printer's ornaments: a symmetrical canopy-and-urn cartouche and a flowing acanthus-and-flower panel, useful to a designer for historical border and frame motifs.
