L'Adamo : sacra rapresentatione
L'Adamo is a 1617 Milan sacred drama by Giovanni Battista Andreini, published for Geronimo Bordoni and illustrated by Carlo Antonio Procaccino's circle, a religious stage text on Adam and Eve. The small black-and-white engravings show horned, hoofed devils with tridents and winged figures on clouds, arranged as crowded staged scenes with a flat ground line and simple landscape backdrops, useful for designers studying early baroque grotesque figures and compositional framing.
