A 1714 Italian funeral book published in Brescia by Gio. Maria Rizzardi, written by Pietro Avogadro and commemorating Cardinal Giovanni Badoaro, Bishop of Brescia, for the city's religious orders. Its pictures are engraved frontispiece portraits and a large decorative initial, showing how allegory, oval portrait frames and emblematic figures were arranged on a funeral title page. A designer might take the cartouche layout, the framed portrait medallion, and the flanking allegorical figures as models for memorial or commemorative typography.
