A Jesuit annual letter (relation) by Barthélemy Vimont, printed in Paris in 1644 by Sebastien Cramoisy and sent to the Jesuit provincial Jean Filleau about missions in New France. The pictures are printed ornaments: a large woodcut historiated initial R with a figure, a fleur-de-lis shield cartouche above the title word, a foliate initial V with a flower, and a strip of scrolling foliage with putti and a central lyre-like motif, offering decorative borders and capitals a designer could adapt.
