De summo bono lib. III, : omni hominum generi quàm vtilissimi..

Isidore, of Seville, Saint, d. 636, Aleaume, Jean, 15th/16th cent., ed · 1538 · Parisiis : Apud Ioannem Roigny, via ad D. Iacobum, sub Basilisco & quatuor Elementis. · 1 picture

A 1538 Parisian edition of Isidore of Seville's Christian ethics treatise On the Highest Good, edited by Jean Aleaume and published by Jean de Roigny in Paris for scholars and theologians. The single picture is a bookplate: a laurel wreath enclosing a coin-like medallion with a figure and inscription, with a bracketed label reading 'Purchased from the income of the Josiah H. Benton Fund' and a blank number line, so a designer could take its classical wreath-and-medallion framing as a model for certificates or seals.
