The Old and New Testaments
The Old and New Testaments is a 1612 Bible printed in London by Robert Barker, with psalms attributed to Thomas Sternhold, a sixteenth-century poet, and intended for religious readers. Its pictures are small black-and-white woodcut decorative initials, a large capital T framed by dense scrollwork with strapwork borders, cross-hatched shading, and foliate curls, which a designer might borrow for ornamental capitals, frames, or period-styled borders.
