A printed speech from 1632 by Henri II de Bourbon, Prince de Condé, delivered at the opening of the Estates of Brittany and published in Paris by I. Lagvehay for a French audience of provincial officials. Its three pictures are woodcut ornaments: a foliage border with birds, a central mask with scrolled supports, and a decorated initial letter, all in a dense, symmetrical early-seventeenth-century French style that a designer could draw on for border strips, cartouches, and drop caps.
