An Italian verse collection of love poems by Luigi Tansillo and Francesco Berni, printed in Venice in 1574 and aimed at lovers of amorous poetry. Its pictures are small black-and-white woodcuts: a mounted hunting or courtly scene framed as a frontispiece, a decorated initial letter C beside the text, a copper-engraved bookplate with cherubs and a curtain, and a symmetrical interlace ornament that a designer could adapt for a border or motif.
