Epitome thesavri antiqvitatvm, hoc est, Impp. Rom. orientalivm et occidentalivm iconum : ex antiquis numismatibus quam fidelissime deliniatarum, ex Musaeo Iacobi de Strada mantuani antiquarij
Epitome thesavri antiqvitatvm, published in Zurich in 1557 by Andreas Gesner, is a numismatic catalogue by Jacobus Strada of Mantua compiling Roman imperial coin portraits for scholars and collectors. Its pictures are black-ground medallion roundels with white woodcut busts in profile, each ringed by inscribed legends, offering a designer a compact vocabulary of classical laurel, drapery and lettering arranged in circular frames.
