De' ragguagli di Parnaso ..
A 1612 Venetian printing of Traiano Boccalini's satirical political writings, edited by Girolamo Briani, issued by Pietro Farri for a learned Italian readership interested in politics. The pictures are four decorative woodcut initials, a large L, an I, a T-shaped I and an E, built from interlaced foliage, scrolls and striped leaf shapes set within rectangular frames, suggesting ornamental letter design for historical headers and display type.
