L'ordine che si tiene, nel creare il sommo Pontifice, con le cerimonie che si fanno nella coronatione di Santo Giouanni Laterano : con li nomi titoli, cognomi, & patrie, di signori reuerendissimi cardinali de la Santa Romana chie fa, che al preferite viuono
A 1555 Italian printed book describing how a pope is elected and crowned at St John Lateran, with a list of living cardinals of the Roman Church, set in a large black-letter title block above a small woodcut. The woodcut shows a group of robed clergy in tall mitres and vestments standing in a crowd, with an inscription tablet below, a plain layout a designer could borrow for formal ceremonial title pages.
