The Count de Gabalis is a 1714 London edition of a satirical dialogue on Rosicrucian spirits, slyphs, salamanders, gnomes and demons, originally by Henri de Montfaucon de Villars and prefaced by Pierre Bayle, printed for B. Lintott and E. Curll. The pictures are small printed ornaments: a scrolled cartouche with a central rosette, a floral urn spray, and two decorated initial letters with interlaced foliage inside square frames, useful for designers seeking historical headpieces, tailpieces and initial caps.
