Libro dela miseria y breuedad de la vida del hombre : y de sus quatro postrimerias, en lengua mexicana.
A Nahuatl-language devotional book printed in Mexico City in 1604 by Diego López Daváloz, written by the Franciscan friar Juan Bautista for Indigenous readers and the Church's teaching on death, judgement, and the afterlife. The pictures are small woodcut work: a decorative strapwork border, a framed Virgin and Child with a rayed background, and a heraldic shield with a chevron and motto banner, which together show how a colonial printer mixed ornament, sacred image, and coat of arms on one page.
