Atrivm Heroicvm is a 1600 portrait collection of emperors, kings and other nobles who lived in the previous century or were still living, compiled by Dominicus Custos and Marcus Henning and printed in Germany for a learned audience. Each oval bust sits in an engraved frame with Latin verses, Habsburg arms and ornamental cartouches, giving a designer a consistent model for formal portrait medallions, heraldic borders and printed lettering.
