Delle famiglie nobili Napoletane is a 1580 Florentine printed book by Scipione Ammirato on Neapolitan noble families, from the John Adams Library at the Boston Public Library. The pictures are woodcut decorative initial letters: a C and an I with dense scrollwork, leaf and foliage fill, and an O framed by acanthus-like borders, useful to a designer seeking historic letterform ornament.
