Glorie di gverrieri e d'amanti in nvova impresa nella città di Taranto succedute
This is a 1596 Neapolitan printed book by Cataldo Antonio Mannarino, Lodovico Chiari and Martin van Buyten, published by Carlino and Pace in Naples and dedicated to the Duke of Atri, recording festivities at Taranto. The pictures are woodcut decorative initials and printers' ornaments, with a lion-headed figure in a laurel-like frame, a winged cherub face in a scrolled cartouche, and a large letter A with foliage, showing how Renaissance letterforms and framed roundels can be adapted for display headings and emblem borders.
