Vgolini Verini poetae Florentini De illustratione vrbis Florentiae libri tres
A Latin poem in three books by the Florentine poet Ugolino Verino, printed in Florence in 1636 with a later editor, Germain Audebert, and aimed at readers of humanist Latin verse praising the city. The pictures are decorative printer's initials, mostly woodcut-style letters with foliage, scrollwork and small figures or flowers filling the letter forms, showing how historic initials framed a page's opening.
