Il nobilissimo et ricchissimo torneo fatto nella magnifica città di Piacenza nella venuta del Serenissimo Don Giovanni d'Avstria
An Italian account of a tournament held at Piacenza in 1574 for the visit of Don Giovanni of Austria, printed by Francesco Conti and written by Antonio Bendinelli. The pictures are woodcut decorative initials and ornamental borders, with a grotesque mask flanked by scrolling acanthus and foliage that a designer could borrow for headers, drop caps, and frames.
