This is a 1691 Roman book printed by Marc'Antonio and Orazio Campana, recording the Holy Year of 1675 celebrated under Pope Clement X and dedicated to Pope Innocent XII. The pictures are small woodcut decorative initials and ornaments: foliage, grotesque faces and figures framing large capital letters, with dense black-and-white patterning a designer could borrow for historical initials, borders or printed headpieces.
