A 1680 Palermo festival book printed by Giuseppe La Barbera and Tomaso Rummulo, recording the tournament celebrating the wedding of Charles II of Spain and Maria Luisa of Orléans, written for the city's senate. Its framed copper-engraved plates show mounted knights in plumed helmets and ornate armour, with the figures set in scrolled cartouche borders that a designer could adapt for decorative frames and period costume.
