Naudé, Gabriel, 1600-1653 · 1625 · Paris : François Targa · 1 picture

Gabriel Naudé's defence of eminent scholars and rulers accused of sorcery, printed in Paris by François Targa in 1625 for a Latin-reading learned audience. The single indexed image is a woodcut initial M on a black ground, the letter reserved in white against dense chiselled hatching, useful as a drop cap or as a source of high-contrast relief texture.
