Libro di Marco Avrelio con l'horologio de principi. Destinto in IIII volvmi ..
Libro di Marco Avrelio con l'horologio de principi is a 1584 Italian printing published in Venice by Marco Antonio Zaltieri, written by Antonio de Guevara, a bishop who died around 1545, and aimed at princes and rulers. The four decorated initials here are woodcut letters C, T, S and L, with ornamental foliage, a grotesque mask, a seated figure and a winged putto, and a designer could take from them a ready vocabulary of Renaissance capital-letter framing with scrolls and curling leaves.
