Roma e Tebro festeggianti per l'assuntione al felicissimo pontificato di n. sig. Alessandro settimo, pontefice ottimo massimo
A 1665 Roman festival book printed by Francesco Moneta celebrating the election of Pope Alexander VII, published in Rome for a papal and civic audience. The picture is a dense woodcut papal coat of arms framed by crossed keys, a tiara, and scrolling ornament, with an oval shield of four quadrants showing trees and mounds. A designer could take from it the layered baroque cartouche structure and the symmetrical heraldic framing device.
