Rosichino · 1570 · In Roma : Apresso Fabio de Falco · 7 pictures

Dichiaratione delle pittvre della sala de' signori Barberini is an Italian book printed in Rome in 1570 by Rosichino, published by Fabio de Falco, apparently for readers interested in the Barberini palace paintings. The pictures are small woodcut decorations: a floral initial letter in a square frame, a band of birds among flowers, and a stylised bee with stars, offering designers ready models for ornamental borders and initials.
