Flos sanctorum : historia das vidas de Christo S.N. e de sua Santissima Mãy, vidas dos santos e suas festas repartidas pellos doze mezes : com sermoẽs, & praticas que servem para muytas festas do anno
This is a Portuguese devotional compendium of saints' lives, Christ's life and sermons, compiled by Diogo do Rosário and printed in Lisbon in 1681 by Antonio Craesbeeck de Mello for lay readers and clergy. Its small woodcut vignettes, framed in simple borders, show saints in scenes of healing, prayer and solitary devotion, with plain outlines and dense hatching that suggest a model for compact, emblematic narrative images.
