Giro del mondo del dottor d. Gio. Francesco Gemelli Careri
A 1699 Italian travel account of a round-the-world voyage by Giovanni Francesco Gemelli Careri, printed in Naples at the Giuseppe Roselli press with engravings by Andrea Magliar for a general reading public. The pictures are small woodcut-style ornaments: floral scrolls, a pair of confronted birds in a cartouche, a flower-filled urn, and a framed initial letter, offering a designer models for decorative borders, headpieces and historical letterforms.
