De rimedi naturali che sono nell' isola di Pithecusa : hoggi detta Ischia libri due
A 1588 Neapolitan medical treatise by Giulio Jasolino on the natural remedies and mineral baths of the island of Ischia, printed in Naples for a readership of physicians and visitors to the spa. Its pictures are small woodcut historiated initial letters, each framing a scene such as an angel, a seated figure, or a group of robed men within a bold capital, in a dense hatched style with a clear black outline that a designer could borrow for decorative capitals.
