Storia dell'arte italiana
Storia dell'arte italiana is a 1901 Italian art history volume by Adolfo Venturi, published in Milan by Hoepli for students and scholars of Italian art. Its four plates are captioned photographs of Renaissance woodwork and carved interiors, including a richly inlaid panel, a carved chest, a female bust medallion in relief, and a paneled room with arched niches. A designer could take from them the dense inlay patterns, the framing of carved ornament, and the classical wreath and foliage motifs.
