Architettvra militare : con altri auuertimenti appartenenti alla guerra
Architettvra militare is a 1582 Italian treatise on military architecture and warfare, written by Antonio Lupicini and published in Florence by Giorgio Marescotti for engineers and soldiers concerned with fortification. The four pictures here are decorative woodcut initials and a strapwork ornamental band, with one initial showing harvest-like labourers beside a barrel and another showing foliage and grotesque figures, suggesting that a designer could borrow the framed capital letters and interlaced scrollwork for display type and borders.
