Ivsti LipsI Politicorvm, sive, Civilis doctrinae libri sex : qui ad principatum maximè spectant : additae notae auctiores, tum & De vna religione liber
Justus Lipsius's Latin treatise on political doctrine, printed at Antwerp in 1604 by the Plantin press for the scholarly and princely reader. The four pictures are decorative woodcut initials, a large V and P and V and R, framed by scrolling foliage, birds, and grotesque animals, suggesting ornamental letter design for historical text pages.
