Caroli Noceti e Societate Jesu De iride et aurora boreali carmina
This is a 1747 Latin poem collection by Jesuit writer Carlo Noceti, with a commentary by Rudjer Bošković, printed in Rome by the Palearini brothers for scholars studying rainbows and aurorae. The pictures are ornamental engraved headpieces and tailpieces: a monogram cartouche, a framed allegorical vignette, a flowering urn, and a scrolled border with a central mask, all in dense black line on cream paper, offering a designer rococo scrollwork, floral garlands and cartouche framing.
