Sentimenti di pochi principianti d'architettura in ordine alle Verità di fatto, pubblicate dal Signor Raimondo Compagnini per Lelio dalla Volpe in Bologna 1777
An 1777 Italian architectural treatise by Giovanni Giacomo Dotti, printed in Bologna at the Sassi press, responding to Raimondo Compagnini's writings on building and architectural truth for readers of architecture. The two pictures are small decorative typographic ornaments: a rococo scrolled initial letter with acanthus and C-scroll forms, and a horizontal tailpiece of two cherubs with a bundle of flowers and foliage, both in dark ink on aged paper. A designer could take their asymmetric scrollwork and foliage motifs as models for initials, headers, and ornamental dividers in period-style layouts.
