Prodromo Delle Antichità d'Ercolano
Prodromo delle Antichità d'Ercolano is an 18th-century Italian scholarly work on the antiquities of Herculaneum, written by Ottavio Antonio Bayardi and printed in 1752 for readers of classical archaeology, held by Heidelberg University Library. Its pictures are small black-and-white woodcut-style tailpieces, headpieces and heraldic devices with scrolling acanthus, floral urns, a coat of arms and a decorated initial, useful to a designer as ornament for borders, dividers and vignettes.
