Fabretti, Raffaele, 1618-1700 · 1683 · Romae, ex officina N. A. Tinassij · 246 pictures

Fabretti's 1683 Roman treatise on Trajan's Column, printed in Rome by N. A. Tinassi and written for scholars of antiquity, sets out inscriptions and relief scenes in paired circular frames. The pictures are plain engraved diagrams of Latin and Greek lettering beside small relief figures such as a helmeted head and a warrior with a sword, useful for a designer studying classical inscription layout and circular label composition.
