Lo sciocco : comedia & inuentione
Lo sciocco is a 1628 Italian comedy printed in Venice by Gio. Battista Combi, written by Cesare Caporali and edited by Francesco Buonafede, with its pages set in dense italic type. The pictures are small decorative typographic initials and ornaments, such as a large ornate C, an oval framed floral emblem, a bold inline N, and a historiated P with foliage, which suggest ways to build decorative letterforms and frame ornaments for display headings.
