Diversi ornamenti capricciosi per depositi o altari, vtilisimi a virtuosi
A Roman engraved pattern book of 1625 published by Gio. Batta. Soria, collecting capricious designs for tomb monuments and altars meant for use by skilled artists and patrons. The four engravings show symmetrical architectural altarpieces with pediments, paired columns, niches holding busts or statues, cherubs, and carved swags, drawn in crisp black line with light shading that a designer could adapt for ornamental frames or niche compositions.
