Le institvtioni dell'imperio contenvte nella Bolla Doro : nuouamente dalla latina nella uolgar lingua tradotte
This is a 1559 Venetian printed edition, published in Venice by the Academia Veneziana, of Luca Contile's Italian translation of the Golden Bull of Emperor Charles IV, the imperial constitution on electors, made for readers of the Holy Roman Empire's laws. The pictures are small engraved emblems: a heraldic shield under a crown with supporters, an angel with a trumpet inside a laurel wreath bearing a motto scroll, and a blurred, faded page fragment, offering a designer classical allegorical framing devices and laurel borders.
