Scielta di notabili avvertimenti, pertinenti a' cavalli ... : col ritratto del cavallo, oue si ueggono tutti i suoi morbi, co' medicamenti applicati a loro
Scielta di notabili avvertimenti is a 1571 Italian treatise on horses by Federico Grisone, printed in Venice by Gio. Andrea Valuassori for horsemen and horse owners. Its pictures are small woodcuts: a caduceus-like staff of entwined serpents and leaves held by two hands, a decorated initial with a robed figure beside a flaming altar, and a full-page horse diagram ringed by radiating lines and labelled ailment cartouches, useful for designers wanting compact emblematic devices and tidy labelled diagrams.
