Terni; con 173 illustrazioni e 4 tavole
A 1910 Italian art book on Terni, published in Bergamo by the Istituto italiano d'arti grafiche and held by the Getty Research Institute, compiled under the name of Luigi Lanzi (d. 1810) and illustrated throughout with photographs of architecture, sculpture and painting. The pages are sepia-toned black-and-white halftone plates, most printed sideways here, showing a rectangular stone palace façade, an arched portal with paneled doors, a carved crucifix, an ornate gilded altar frame, and a painted panel of saints beneath an angel. A designer could take strong architectural framing, symmetrical arched doorways and dense Renaissance ornament from these plates.
