Il rimanente de le piacevole, et ingeniose lettere indirizzate a diuersi, con bellissime argutie. Sotto varii, et sottilissimi discorsi, dechiarati
A 1557 Venetian printed book of letters by Andrea Calmo, published by Alessi in Venice for a general Italian readership, as the title's 'diuersi' and 'piacevole' letters suggest. Its pictures are small woodcut historiated initials: a large F with a bearded figure riding a sea creature over wavy water, a C enclosing a seated man, and two M initials showing an embracing couple, with dense horizontal hatching that a designer could borrow for compact decorative capitals.
