Collegio de' nobili di Parma, Heredi di Mario Vigna · 1686 · In Parma : Per gli heredi del Vigna · 3 pictures

A 1686 Italian prize-giving booklet printed in Parma by the heirs of Mario Vigna for the Collegio de' nobili, recording an August award event honouring students of letters and chivalric arts. The three pictures are woodcut decorative initials and a fleuron: a large letter I with a cherub-like figure and vine scrolls, a letter S framing a standing male figure in foliage, and a leafy fleur-de-lis ornament, useful to designers seeking historical capital letters and border-strip flourishes.
