Dell' historie di Siena
A 1625 Venetian history of Siena by Giugurta Tommasi, printed by Gio. Batt. Pulciani for readers interested in the Sienese past. The four pictures are woodcut head and tailpiece ornaments made of scrolls, rosettes and cartouches, with the lowest one holding cherubs and figures in a frieze. A designer could take from them the dense, symmetrical strapwork and flowing scroll borders of Renaissance printed ornament.
