Pallavicino, Ferrante, 1615-1644, Brusoni, Girolamo, 1610- · 1660 · In Villafranca [i.e. Geneva : s.n.] · 2 pictures

A collection of satirical and burlesque works by the Italian writer Ferrante Pallavicino, printed in 1660 under a false imprint, likely Geneva, with Girolamo Brusoni credited among the authors, and addressed to a learned Italian reading public. The two pictures are a decorative historiated initial E built from interlaced foliage and scrolls, and a small woodcut of a boy and a man beside a stone tower with steps, a rustic scene that a designer could borrow for compact framing devices and simple narrative vignettes.
