A 1672 Portuguese biography of the Jesuit missionary José de Anchieta, printed in Lisbon by the Officina de João da Costa and written by Simão de Vasconcellos for a religious readership interested in the Jesuit mission in Brazil. The four pictures are woodcut printers' ornaments: a winged cherub above a central oval device, a dense grotesque mask with fruit swags, a fruit-and-putto headpiece, and a bordered strip with garlands, all in black ink on cream paper, offering designers strong models for symmetrical frames, cartouches and border strips.
