Seleniana augustalia Iohannis Valentini Andreae, S.T.D. : una cum opusculis alijs

Andreä, Johann Valentin, 1586-1654, Buna, C., 17th cent · 1649 · Ulmae Suevorum : Typ. et impens. Balthas. Kuhnen · 12 pictures

A 1649 Latin collection of letters and short works by the theologian Johann Valentin Andreä, printed at Ulm in Swabia by the Kühnen press for a learned readership. The pictures are small woodcut printer's ornaments and headpieces: a scrolled arabesque panel, a bearded mask with foliage, and a large decorative initial T set in leafy strapwork, all in dense black ink on cream paper, useful to a designer seeking historical border and initial motifs.
