La moral' filosophia del Doni is a 1552 Venetian moral-philosophy book by Anton Francesco Doni, printed by Francesco Marcolini and drawing on ancient writers for an Italian readership. Its woodcuts sit in framed panels with ornate cartouche borders, each showing a single mythic or allegorical scene with a few robed figures, animals, and landscape; a designer could borrow the compact framed-vignette layout and the dense cross-hatched line work.
