Orazione fvnerale
Orazione fvnerale is a funeral oration by Francesco de Marchi, printed in Florence in 1589 by Antonio Padouanio for readers of Italian funeral literature, held by the Getty Research Institute. The first picture is a framed woodcut of a religious scene within a decorative border, the second a large historiated initial D with grotesque faces, and the third a printer's device with a globe and a monogram, showing how woodcut frames, initials and marks decorated late sixteenth-century Italian print.
