Les Vies des hommes illustres, grecs et romains, comparées l'une avec l'autre
A 1567 Paris edition of Plutarch's Parallel Lives, translated into French by Jacques Amyot and printed by Vascosan for a learned French readership. Its pictures are woodcut decorative headpieces and an ornamental initial, with grotesque beasts, lion masks, and scrolling foliage that a designer could use as border or ornament models.
