Emblemi politici del Signor caualier Guido Casoni
An Italian emblem book by Guido Casoni, printed in Venice by Paolo Baglioni in 1632 for court readers interested in political maxims illustrated by device and motto. The index holds mostly woodcut decorated initials, capitals set in white-line foliage with curling acanthus scrolls, and the worn, ink-heavy printing of the period, useful as drop caps, letterform references, and ornament fragments.
