Il concilio, et consiglieri del principe : opera
A 1560 Venetian political treatise by Furio Ceriol, translated by Alfonso de Ulloa, on counsel and councillors to a prince, printed by Francesco Bindoni. Its four pictures are small woodcut initial letters, one with a seated figure before trees, one with a seated man and a dog, one with a draped figure among scrolling clouds, and a printer's device of a sprouting branch beneath an eye, offering a designer compact historical ornament built around framed letterforms.
