Innocentia vindicata : in qua gravissimis argumentis ex S. Thoma petitis ostenditur, angelicum doctorem pro immaculato conceptu Deiparae sensisse & scripsisse ...
A 1698 theological treatise printed by the monastery press at Saint Gall, Switzerland, by Celestino Sfondrati, defending the Immaculate Conception through the writings of Thomas Aquinas for a scholarly Catholic readership. Its pictures are printed woodcut decorations: large initial-letter C frames with a grotesque mask, a scrolled strapwork band, and a foliate mask ornament, useful to a designer looking for early modern baroque ornament and decorative framing devices.
