Le memorie bresciane : opera historica, e simbolica
Le memorie bresciane is a 1693 Italian historical and emblematic work on the city of Brescia, written by Ottavio Rossi and published in Brescia by D. Gromi, with a copy once owned by John Adams. The four pictures are small woodcut decorative initials and ornamental headpieces, with leafy scrollwork, a flame-topped cartouche and oval frames that a designer could borrow for period-style borders, monograms or chapter openings.
