Symbola divina & humana pontificum, imperatorum, regum : ex musaeo Octavii de Strada civis Romani
This is a 1666 emblem book published in Arnhem by Johan Friderich Hagen, gathering symbols attributed to popes, emperors and kings from the collection of Octavio de Strada, and drawing on engravings by Jacob Typot and Ægidius Sadeler. Each plate shows paired framed medallions with a Latin motto ribbon above a symbolic image, such as a hand holding a caduceus, a rising sun over a hill, a globe with a sword, or an eagle on a pedestal. A designer might draw on the cartouche framing, the ribbon mottoes and the compact emblematic pictograms for heraldic or badge-style work.
