This is a 1591 Latin account of the French expedition to Florida led by René de Laudonnière in 1564, printed at Frankfurt by Johann Wechel for Theodor de Bry from Jacques Le Moyne de Morgues's drawings, for a learned European readership. Its pictures are small woodcut-style decorative initials and a pendant ornament, with the flourished initial pieces built from interlocking scrolls, leaves and strapwork that a designer could borrow for border or capital-letter work.
