A 1531 Flemish chronicle of the counts of Flanders, written by Andries de Smet and Anthonis de Roovere and printed in Antwerp by Willem Vorsterman for readers in the Low Countries and the court of Emperor Charles V. Its pictures are small woodcut scenes of mounted combat before walled towns, framed by carved pillars and bands of scrollwork, plus decorative initial letters with foliage and grotesque figures, useful for designers seeking medieval borders, initials and armoured battle motifs.
