Notitia Vtraqve Dignitatvm Cvm Orientis, Tvm Occidentis Vltra Arcadij, Honorijq[ue] tempora

Panciroli, Guido [Komment.] [Hrsg.] · 1602 · 112 pictures

Notitia Utraque Dignitatum, a 1602 Latin antiquarian edition edited and annotated by Guido Panciroli, aimed at scholars of the late Roman Empire and its administrative offices. Its pages present the insignia of military commands and provinces as schematic woodcut diagrams, with shields, standards, and small architectural emblems arranged in ordered grids beneath printed headings. A designer might borrow the tidy modular repetition of these grids, the stylised fortress and gate forms, and the heraldic simplicity of the emblems for diagrammatic layouts.
