Description
Printer's name from colophon. Printed for Damiano Zenaro, whose salamander device appears on t.p. and last leaf
An earlier version of Ruscelli's work without illustrations was appended to Paolo Giovio's Ragionamento sopra i motti, & disegni d'arme, & d'amore, che communemente chiamano imprese (Venice : Ziletti, 1556)
Engraved t.p. and double-page ill. on 2I2v-2I3r signed by Domenico Zenoi. The t.p. incorporates the arms of Philip II, to whom the work is dedicated. The ill. on 2I2v-2I3r depicts the army of Charles V crossing the Elbe at Mühlberg and is adapted from an engraving by Enea Vico; see Mortimer. The double-page ill. on S1v-S2r and its repetition following GG2 are signed by Nicolò Nelli, as is the full-page ill. at 2Q4v. Double-page ill. following DD2 and its repetition at 2X1v-2X2r signed G.P.F., for Gaspare Padovano (i.e. Gaspare Oselli), as is the full-page ill. at 2P2v; see Mortimer. The ill. on 2T4v is in the 2nd state, with a tree in the shield of the lower border, while that on 3B1r is in the earlier state with two-headed eagle rather than single-headed; see Mortimer. Special engraved t.p.'s for 2nd and 3rd books. Historiated initials, and a few floriated
