A 1533 Basel printing by Pietro Martire d'Anghiera, a Milanese courtier-historian serving the Spanish crown, collecting his Latin decades on the New World and his Babylonian embassy account for scholarly readers. The three pictures are small woodcut printer's devices: a tree of palm in a cartouche labelled PALMA BEB. repeated twice, and a heraldic coat of arms with a crest and motto GAUDEO, which a designer might take as models for compact emblematic frames and symmetrical armorial layout.
