La floria
La floria is a 1560 Italian comedy by Arsiccio Intronato, printed in Florence by the Giunti press and held by the University of California Libraries. The scans show a woodcut historiated initial with a standing man and figures in a landscape, a title page with a fleur-de-lis cartouche and roman capitals, and a University of California seal. A designer could take the dense, hatched woodcut style of the initial and the classic cartouche framing of the title page for historical ornament.
