L'art poëtique de Jacques Peletier du Mans [microforme]
A 1555 French treatise on poetics by Jacques Peletier du Mans, printed in Lyon by Jan de Tournes and Guil. Gazeau, aimed at readers of the French language and verse. The first picture is an engraved device of a winged figure within looping ribbons lettered ART POETIQUE, and the second is a title page framed by dense scrolling ornament with a centred black-letter title block, showing how a printed frame can hold text while the border carries the visual weight.
