Dialogo dell'imprese militari et amorose di Monsignor Giouio, vescouo di Nocera : et del S. Gabriel Symeoni fiorentino : con vn ragionamento di M. Lodouico Domenichi, nel medesimo soggetto : con la tauola
A 1574 Lyon edition, printed by Guillaume Rouillé, of Paolo Giovio's dialogue on military and amorous imprese, with Gabriele Simeoni's heroic devices and Lodovico Domenichi's discourse, made for courtiers and heralds naming personal emblems. The 150 oval woodcuts pair one object—flaming trident, tree, cartouche, sun and crescent—with looping motto ribbons, giving designers ready-made badge frames, banderoles and terse Latin lettering.
