L'amante furioso is a 1597 Italian comedy printed in Venice by Gio. Battista and Gio. Bernardo Sessa, written by the sixteenth-century author Raffaello Borghini. Its pictures are woodcut decorations: a large inhabited initial letter with foliage, a second ornamental initial with scrolling leaves, and a printer's device with a cat inside a cartouche, useful for designers seeking Renaissance borders, initials and framed emblems.
