Le vite de' più eccellenti pittori, scultori ed architettori
This is an Italian-language edition of Giorgio Vasari's lives of Renaissance painters, sculptors and architects, edited by Gaetano Milanesi and published in Florence by G. C. Sansoni in 1906, drawn from the Getty Research Institute collection. Its pictures are small black-and-white woodcut-style device monograms and genealogical family charts with printed text, useful to a designer for compact ornamental lettering and early twentieth-century scholarly page layout.
