Drammatica : l'arte drammatica, attori, autori, critica, rimedi
An Italian treatise on drama, the theatre, actors and authors, written by Isnardo Sartorio and printed in Milan in 1888 by Tip. Guigoni. The pictures are small decorative headpieces and tailpieces in black line, built from scrolling foliage, winged faces and framed cartouches. A designer could take from them the look of late nineteenth-century Italian book ornament for borders, dividers and vignette panels.
