A 1612 Italian funeral relation printed in Milan by the archiepiscopal printers, recording the obsequies held there in December 1611 for Queen Margaret of Austria, consort of Philip III of Spain. The pictures are small black-and-white woodcut and engraved devices: a heraldic coat of arms with crown and mantling, a foliate initial letter, and an ornate typographic headpiece with masks and scrolls, useful for a designer seeking early seventeenth-century heraldic and decorative borders.
