A printed catalogue of Maffeo Pinelli's Venetian library of incunabula, manuscripts and classical texts, compiled by Jacopo Morelli and issued in Venice by Carlo Palese in 1787 for collectors and booksellers. The woodcut tailpieces are small and coarsely cut: a hilltop tower among cottages, an urn of flowers with a crouching rabbit, a winged Fame blowing a trumpet above scrolled clouds.
