Grammatica
Grammatica is a Latin grammar by Antonio de Nebrija, printed in Pampelona in 1569 by Tomás Porralis for students of Latin. Its four pictures are two ornamental woodcut initial letters, S and N, framed in dense scrollwork, a circular portrait medallion of Nebrija in profile with putti and foliage, and a later Boston Public Library bookplate with a bust portrait and a city vignette. The initials and medallion suggest decorative frames and portrait roundels for period-style layouts.
