Detti, e fatti memorabili del Senato, e patritii Veneti
A 1672 Italian printed book from Venice, published by Combi and LaNoù and written by Giacomo Fiorelli, collecting memorable sayings and deeds of Venetian senators and patricians for a learned readership. The pictures are small woodcut floral ornaments and a carved-looking decorative headpiece with scrolls and an urn, showing stylised flower heads, leafy sprays and baroque cartouche forms that a designer could adapt for borders, dividers or vintage botanical motifs.
