Il Clorindo, tragedia pastorale
A 1604 pastoral tragedy, Il Clorindo, written by Giulio Malmignati and printed in Treviso by Aurelio Reghettini, held by the Getty Research Institute. The pictures are woodcut decorative initials and a printer's device: ornate letters with strapwork, scrolling foliage and hatched shading, plus an oval emblem of twin columns and a banner, all showing how Italian early-modern printers framed text with ornament a designer could adapt for lettering or border work.
