Prediche nvovamente venvte in lvce
Prediche nvovamente venvte in lvce is a 1528 Italian collection of sermons by Girolamo Savonarola, edited by Girolamo Giannotti and printed in Venice by Agostino de Zanni. The four pictures are small woodcut historiated initials, framed letters whose interiors hold foliage, a grotesque mask, and putti. A designer could take from them the dense black-and-cream interlace of Renaissance printed capitals, useful for monograms, borders, or initial letters.
