Gli apologi di Giulio Cesare Capaccio, secretario della fedelissima città di Napoli : con le Dicerie morali
This is a 1607 Italian moral fable collection by Giulio Cesare Capaccio, secretary of Naples, printed in Naples by Carlino and Vitale for educated readers. Its oval woodcut vignettes show small scenes in the landscape manner, and a decorative initial letter. A designer could take from them the compact oval framing, the hatched line shading, and the simple emblematic staging of figures in open country.
