Orazione di Lionardo Salviati nella morte di Michelagnolo Bvonarroti
A 1564 Florentine printed oration by Lionardo Salviati on the death of Michelangelo, issued by the ducal press in Florence for a literate, scholarly readership. Its pictures are small woodcut decorations: a large initial letter filled with interlaced foliage, a strip of scrollwork, a shield-like cartouche with pebble-like roundels, and a historiated Q showing two figures handling a struggling animal in a roundel, useful for designers seeking Renaissance ornament and framing devices.
