L'Album; giornale letterario e di belle arti

1834 · Roma, Tip. delle belle arti · 32 pictures

L'Album was an Italian literary and fine arts periodical printed in Rome in 1834 by the Tipografia delle Belle Arti for a general readership of letters and art. Its pictures are small black-and-white wood engravings: a rebus with letter puzzles, a wide view of Rome across rooftops and dome, and a genre scene of women in a boat. A designer might borrow the compact panoramic cityscape and the layered, decorative vignette framing.
