Vita di Giacopo Robusti detto il Tintoretto, celebre pittore, cittadino venetiano
Carlo Ridolfi's 1642 biography of the Venetian painter Tintoretto, printed in Venice by Guglielmo Oddoni for collectors, patrons and artists of the period. Woodcut initials hold vases and curling acanthus inside ruled squares, a strapwork cartouche frames a seated figure with the motto SORS OMNIA VERSAT, and an engraved oval portrait head is built from fine parallel hatching.
