L'anima dell'intrico : comedia nova, & piaceuole
An Italian comedy printed in Venice in 1626 by Paulo Veraldo for the Venetian publisher Angelo Salvadori, a pamphlet-style play text. The four pictures are woodcut decorative initials and a printer's device, with a large foliate S, a T framed by scrolls, a D with a grotesque face, and a circular emblem of a bird perched on a sprig inside lettered banding. A designer could take from them a compact set of baroque-era woodcut letterforms and border ornament suited to period typography.
