Angelorvm et daemonvm nomina et attribvta passim in divinis scriptvris contenta ad patrvm sententiam explicata ..., ca. 1585-1600

Cicogna, Vincenzo · 1585 · 1 picture

A late sixteenth-century manuscript treatise on angels and demons, compiled by Vincenzo Cicogna around 1585 and drawn for Catholic readers, possibly tied to Giulio Antonio Santori. The single picture is a hand-painted diagram of a branching red tree linking a sun-faced head at the top with rows of winged angel heads, with the bottom figure labelled Angelus, offering designers a clear model for hierarchical charts and sacred ornament.
