Io. Francisci Bonomij Bononiensis Chiron Achillis, siue, Nauarchus humanae vitae : morali emblemate geminato ad felicitatis portum perducens
A 1661 emblem book printed in Bologna by the Duccij press, written by the Bolognese author Gian Francesco Bonomi, with Latin text aimed at a learned readership and each emblem pairing a motto with a woodcut picture. The pictures are small, crisp black-and-white woodcut vignettes of crossed weapons under laurel, a curly-haired grotesque face, and ornamental cartouche bands, offering a designer compact motifs for symbolic devices, borders, and headpieces.
