Harmonia ex Evangelistis tribus composita Matthaeo, Marco, & Luca
A 1614 Latin harmony of the three synoptic Gospels by Jean Calvin, printed at Geneva by Eustathius Vignon, a Bible text for scholars and readers of Scripture. The four pictures repeat one woodcut printer's ornament: a central putto flanked by scrolls, foliage and a grotesque mask at the base, printed in dark ink on aged cream paper, offering a ready model for symmetrical Renaissance-style decorative borders and headpieces.
