A Latin history of Naples compiled in 1607 by Giulio Cesare Capaccio, secretary to the city and a Neapolitan citizen, printed by Giovanni Giacomo Carlino for scholars and readers interested in the antiquities of Naples and Campania. Its pictures are small black-and-white woodcuts: an ornamental cartouche with scrolls and a grotesque mask, a scene of a man struggling with a large beast beside a rock with busts, and standing allegorical women, one holding a child and one carrying a basket of fruit and a staff, useful for historical costume, classical allegory and decorative border ideas.
