Libro de abacho

Borghi, Pietro · 1561 · 1 picture

Libro de abacho is a 1561 arithmetic textbook by Pietro Borghi, held by the Turin Astrophysical Observatory, showing printed Italian-style pages of worked calculations. The single page shows dense columns of numerals, fraction bars and multiplication layouts set in close black type on cream paper, with ruled lines separating sums, suggesting a designer could draw on early modern typographic arrangement of tabular material.
