Donna saggia può ciò che vuole
A 1694 Italian printed book, Donna saggia può ciò che vuole, issued in Bologna by the publisher Longhi under a licence from the authorities, held by Columbia University Libraries. The two pictures are a plain floral tailpiece or ornament over the imprint line and a circular college seal showing a seated robed figure flanked by two children, with Latin inscriptions around the rim. A designer could draw on the compact, symmetrical seal layout and the rough, hand-set quality of the baroque floral ornament.
