A 1621 Italian edition of the letters of Isabella Andreini, a Paduan actress and poet of the commedia dell'arte, printed in Turin by the heirs of Gio. Domenico Tarino for readers of her correspondence and conversations. The pictures are a pair of blurred ink stains on laid paper, a column of italic names set in type, and a small ornamental woodcut headpiece of a female mask flanked by feathers and fruit swags, which a designer could draw on for early modern decorative borders and type-driven page layout.
