A French book printed in Paris in 1561 by Jean Dallier, bookseller on the Pont Saint-Michel, collecting the remonstrances of Jean de Roye addressed to King Louis XI on the privileges of the Gallican Church and the complaints of the people. The four decorated initials here are sixteenth-century woodcut letters with foliage, scrollwork and a bearded figure, which a designer could reuse as ornamental drop caps or framed monograms.
