A 1702 Latin scholarly work by Raffaele Fabretti, edited by Janus Gruterus, cataloguing and explaining ancient inscriptions kept in the author's family house in Urbino, Italy, for antiquarians and epigraphers. Its pictures are small woodcut headpieces and an inscribed pedestal with a framed relief of seated and standing figures; a designer might take from them the compact symmetrical ornament of scrolls, winged figures and grotesque masks used to frame text.
