Dionysio halicarnaseo Delle cose antiche della citta di Roma
Dionysius of Halicarnassus's Roman antiquities, printed in Venice in 1545 by Nicolo Bascarini for the bookseller Michel Tramezzino, and translated into Tuscan by Francesco Venturi for a general Italian readership. The pictures are small woodcuts: a seated sibyl in an oval frame with putti and a title page, and a decorative initial V showing a winged putto and a standing nude figure.
