Modo facile per i fanciulli che amano addestrarsi alla formazione del bel carattere Verona
A calligraphy copybook printed in Verona around 1770 by Antonio Vanini and Giuseppe Dall'Acqua, intended as an easy method for children learning to form elegant handwriting. The single picture shows loose, faint pen strokes and circles, apparently an early exercise or practice sheet. A designer might take from it the rhythm of rounded letterforms and the gestural energy of unrefined pen practice as a source for hand-lettered motifs.
