Tractato utilissimo circa lo regimento e conseruatione dela sanitade
A 1508 Italian health treatise on diet and hygiene by physician Ugo Benzi, printed in Milan by Pietro Martire Mantegazza at the expense of publisher Niccolò Gorgonzola. The pictures are small woodcut and engraved devices: a printer's mark with a star and ribbon, an ornamental initial C, a heraldic shield with a wheatsheaf, and a scene of robed figures with a globe and books. Designers could draw on the crude, bold line of early print marks and the ornamental letter frame.
