De kapelle der dooden, of de algemeene dooden-spiegel. In welken alle menschen, van wat staat of rang zy zyn mogen, zich tot hun nut konnen beschouwen; om indagtig te zyn het memento mori, of gedenkt to sterven ..
A Dutch devotional meditation on death, published in Amsterdam in 1741 by J. Roman de Jonge, a mirror of death for people of every rank to reflect on mortality. Its pictures are small decorative typographic ornaments: a large letter W and E with foliate scrollwork, a fleur-de-lis urn with acanthus leaves, and a crowned fleur-de-lis cartouche with swags, offering a designer simple historical initials, headpieces and dividers.
