De' ragguagli di Parnaso ..
A 1612 Italian political satire by Traiano Boccalini, published in Venice by Pietro Farri and edited by Girolamo Briani, held by Duke University Libraries. The pictures are woodcut decorative initials, each a large capital letter framed by scrolling foliage, with griffins, winged creatures and a figure with a cap, a useful source for Renaissance-style ornament and letter-based graphic design.
