Theatrum temporaneum aeternitati Caesaris Montii S.R.E. cardinalis et archiep. Mediolanen. sacrum
Theatrum temporaneum is a 1636 Latin funerary or commemorative book printed in Milan by the Pacifici Pontij press for Cardinal Cesare Monti, with text by Ottavio Boldoni and engravings signed by G. P. Bianchi and Riccardo Taurino. The pictures are symmetrical baroque engraved frames built from scrolling acanthus, cartouches, garlands, and small allegorical figures standing on pedestals, with fine parallel hatching that a designer could borrow for ornamental borders and title pages.
