A short explanation of the Epistle of Paul to the Hebrewes
A 1635 religious commentary on the Epistle to the Hebrews by David Dickson, printed in Aberdeen by Edward Raban for Scottish Puritan readers. Its pictures are small printed ornaments: symmetrical scrollwork cartouches, a flourished initial W set in foliage, and a repeating strip of leafy bands. A designer might take from them the balanced, mirrored structure of early seventeenth-century printers' decoration and its dense black-and-white ornament.
