"Ferrymen on the River Seine, from Ordonnances Royaux de la Juridiction de la Prevote des Marchands de la Ville de Paris, 1528" is a historical document created by Antoine Verard, a prominent publisher and bookseller in Paris during the late 15th and early 16th centuries. This work is part of a larger collection of royal ordinances that governed the jurisdiction of the Prévôté des Marchands, an important municipal authority in Paris responsible for regulating trade and commerce within the city.

The document provides a detailed account of the regulations and duties imposed on ferrymen operating on the River Seine, a vital waterway for transportation and trade in medieval Paris. The ordinances outlined in this text were crucial for maintaining order and ensuring the efficient movement of goods and people across the river. They addressed various aspects of the ferrymen's operations, including the licensing requirements, tolls, and the conduct expected of those who provided ferry services.

Antoine Verard's publication of these ordinances reflects the broader context of his work, which often involved the dissemination of legal, religious, and literary texts. Verard was known for his meticulous attention to detail and the high quality of his printed works, which were often richly illustrated and adorned with decorative elements. His contributions to the preservation and dissemination of legal documents like the "Ordonnances Royaux" were instrumental in shaping the administrative and commercial landscape of Paris during this period.
