Fenestella, L. (Lucius), -1452, Albricus, philosophus, 13th cent. De imaginibus deorum. 1510, Leto, Giulio Pomponio, 1428-1497. Selections. 1510 · 1510 · Impressum Romae : Per Iacobum Mazochium ... · 1 picture

A 1510 Roman printed compilation of three Latin treatises on Roman magistrates and the images of gods, printed in Rome by Jacob Mazochius and collected for scholars and readers of antiquity. The title page is set in roman capitals inside a double-ruled frame, topped by a woodcut of a face flanked by scrolling serpent-like ornaments, with two oval medallion blanks beside the text and a faint manuscript inscription at the foot. A designer could take its symmetrical, centred layout, rule-framed text block and classical capitals as a model for formal historical title pages.
