Il fazzoletto : opera scenica
Il fazzoletto is a printed Italian opera libretto (opera scenica) by Anton Giulio Brignole Sale, published in Bologna by Per il Longhi, held by the Getty Research Institute. Its two pictures are a small woodcut of a winged figure blowing a trumpet while holding a laurel wreath, and a title-page vignette of a flowering plant in a footed urn above a Bologna imprint, both set in plain letterpress with no colour. A designer might take from them the economy of a single-block woodcut and the classic decorative motifs of trumpet, wreath and urn for stylised emblems.
