Oracolo d'Apollo, concerto mvsicale da cantarsi nell'Accademia degl'Oscvri, alla presenza delle sig. dame per introdvttione al problema chi debba esser preferito in amore, il valore, il genio, o'la servtiv'
A 1650 Italian musical concerto printed for performance at the Accademia degl'Oscuri in Lucca before ladies of the court, issued by the Accademia lucchese with no named printer. The pictures are small woodcut ornaments of flowers, a decorated initial D, and flower baskets and vases, set into the text as decorative breaks; a designer could take from them simple, stylized botanical forms and compact woodcut borders for period-style floral motifs.
