De Etruriae regionis : quae prima in orbe Europaeo habitata est, originibus, institutis, religione & moribus, & imprimis de aurei saeculi doctrina et uit a praestantissima quae in diuinationis sacrae usu posita est
A 1551 Latin treatise on Etruscan origins, religion and customs, printed in Florence by Lorenzo Torrentino and written by Guillaume Postel. Its pictures are woodcut initials and ornamental letters: a framed foliate block, a scrolled ornamental I, and historiated N and S filled with mounted riders, horses and hounds in a dense engraved line style that suggests how decorative capitals can carry narrative scenes.
