Vite de' pittori, scultori ed architetti, che anno lavorato in Roma : morti dal 1641 fino al 1673
Giovanni Battista Passeri's biographies of painters, sculptors and architects active in Rome who died between 1641 and 1673, printed in Rome in 1772 by Gregorio Settari for antiquarians and artists. The illustrations are letterpress ornaments: woodcut initials set in small landscapes of brick ruins and cypresses, and symmetrical headpieces of acanthus scrolls around a grotesque mask, a rayed sun and a displayed eagle Gÿuseful as chapter openers, borders and small emblem stamps.
