Miracoli della Sac.ma Vergine Maria : seguiti a benefitio di quelli che sono stati deuoti della Compagnia del Sant.mo Rosario
A 1587 Italian devotional book of Marian miracle stories, printed in Venice by Bernardo Giunti under the name of Giacomo Franco, written for members of the Confraternity of the Most Holy Rosary. Its pictures are small woodcut ornament pieces: grotesque masks with winged griffins and scrolling acanthus, and a cartouche with rosettes. A designer could take from them the dense, symmetrical strapwork and grotesque vocabulary of late sixteenth-century Venetian printing.
