A 1667 Paris edition of Flavius Josephus's Jewish Antiquities, translated into French by Robert Arnauld d'Andilly for a French readership and published by Pierre Le Petit. The pictures are engraved headpieces above the large capital HISTOIRE, with dense crowded scenes of figures in classical dress, arches, and balustrades, suggesting how a designer might structure a title band with a narrative frieze.
