Varij ragionamenti historici, e politici
A 1623 Italian collection of historical and political discourses by Lorenzo Capelloni, printed in Milan by G. B. Bidelli for a general readership of scholars and statesmen. The pictures are woodcut decorative initials and a corner ornament, with dense foliage, scrollwork and grotesque leaf forms that a designer could adapt for historical display type, borders or drop caps.
