A new light on the renaissance displayed in contemporary emblems

Bayley, Harold · 1909 · London, J.M. Dent · 37 pictures

A 1909 London study by Harold Bayley, published by J.M. Dent, examining Renaissance emblems, printers' marks and cabalistic symbols from the Getty Research Institute's holdings. The pictures are small line drawings of monogram marks, a crowned heart shield, and ornamental strapwork panels with vases, scrolls and grotesque figures that a designer could draw on for border and monogram work.
