This title page from 1578, designed by Johannes of Lucas van Doetechum, is for a book titled "De Oorden Tuschana." The book, a collection of 12 architectural designs, was printed in Antwerp by Hans Vredeman de Vries, a Dutch architect and writer known for his innovative designs and his "learning" in the tradition of the famous Roman architect Vitruvius. The title page is printed in black ink, with a minimalist, yet elegant design that highlights the title and printing information, making it an interesting example of early printed material.
