Racconto dell'esequie fatte in Cremona all'eminentissimo signor cardinale Pietro Campori, vescouo d'essa città
A 1643 funeral account printed in Cremona by Gio. Pietro Zanni, describing the obsequies of Cardinal Pietro Campori, bishop of that city, with text by Francesco Realino and Marco Antonio Bossi. The four pictures are engraved emblematic cartouches framed by winged putti, caryatid-like women, grotesque masks and scrolling ornament, with Latin mottoes and small devices. A designer could take the symmetrical strapwork frames, mottoed scrolls and heraldic-style shield shapes as models for ornamental borders.
