A 1665 Spanish devotional biography of Saint Rose of Lima, printed in Valencia by Gerónimo Vilagrasa for the Holy Inquisition and the city, written by Leonhard Hansen and edited by Juan Tomás de Rocaberti. The first picture is an engraved frontispiece of the saint holding a flowering branch and a crown of thorns, framed by ornamental borders and a Latin inscription, a pattern a designer could borrow for devotional or ecclesiastical ornament. The other two are a faint sepia figure and a heraldic coat of arms with a crested helmet, scrolling acanthus mantling, and a banner reading Gaudeo, useful for crest and armorial motifs.
