Ghirlanda: Di sei vaghi fiori scielti da piu famosi Giardini d'Italia, page 26 (recto) — Pietro Paulo Tozzi|Libraria del Giesu

Designed by Pietro Paulo Tozzi, published by Libraria del Giesu, Padua. Calligraphy by Antonello Bertozzi and Sebastian Zanella, scribes of Padua. Design is composed of a central rectangle upon which calligraphic text is printed in black. Surrounding the top of this middle section are 3 triangular motifs that are ornamented with a floral pattern. At the upper corners and right, left, and bottom borders of the central section are other geometric motifs, many of which resemble floral elements.
