Porticus triumphalis is a 1694 Latin printed description of a triumphal portico in Lisbon, written by Rafael Bluteau and printed by Michael Deslandes for the reception of Queen Maria Sofia Isabel of Bavaria. Its pictures are small black woodcut-style ornaments with a cream paper ground, showing foliage clusters, putti, scrolled cartouches, a heraldic shield and a fruit swag, useful for designers seeking dense, symmetrical baroque border and header ornament.
