Stapleton, Thomas, 1535-1598 · 1592 · Joannem Baptistam Buysson · 22 pictures

A Latin sermon aid of moral examples and meditations on the Sunday Gospels, compiled by the Catholic writer Thomas Stapleton and printed in 1592 for preachers and devout readers. Its pictures are small woodcut initials, each letter framed by curling leaves, tendrils, and grotesque faces, which suggest decorative lettering a designer could adapt for capitals and borders.
