Caesarini Fürstenerii Tractatus de jure suprematus ac legationis principum Germaniae
A 1678 Latin legal treatise on the rights of German princes, attributed to Leibniz and printed in Passau under a London imprint. The pictures are not illustrations of its text but decorative printed papers or border patterns, showing red vertical stripes with small red roses and dark green sprigs. A designer could take from them a ready source of striped floral botanical motifs in a faded eighteenth-century palette.
