Regum neapolitanorum vitae et effigies
Regum neapolitanorum vitae et effigies is a 1605 Augsburg book of engraved portrait plates of the kings of Naples, published by Dominicus Custos and Raphael Custos with text by Scipione Mazzella. Each plate frames a half-length bust of a ruler in an oval within an ornate cartouche, with a Latin motto and heraldic shields below, and the set offers a consistent template for designers working on period portraiture, heraldry and decorative framing.
