Consiliorum. Studio & operâ collectorum ..
A 1649 Frankfurt legal treatise on Roman law, compiled by Kaspar Klock, Thomas Merckelbach and Christoph Ludwig Dietherr and published by W. Endter for lawyers and scholars. Its pictures are small woodcut decorative initials built from dense, looping black strokes and scrolling foliate forms, useful to a designer seeking historic letter ornament with calligraphic energy.
