Il giglio irrigato dalle lagrime : orazione detta da Pomponio Becchetti, rettore del Collegio Ancarano, e varie poesie recitate nell' Accademia funebre auutasi nel medesimo Collegio per la morte del sereniss. principe Pietro Farnese
A 1677 Bologna funeral oration and poetry collection in Italian, compiled for the Collegio Ancarano's academy honouring Prince Pietro Farnese, with ornaments likely by Giuseppe Maria Mitelli. The four pictures are symmetrical woodcut-style headpieces and tailpieces: a grotesque mask among scrolls, a two-handled urn flanked by flaming finials, a sunburst medallion with swags, and a bearded mask between scrolling volutes. A designer could draw on their mirrored scrollwork and framing for decorative borders.
