Specialist Notes
The first illustrated edition, after the princeps of 1556, dates back to 1571. The manual created by Vincenzo Cartari represents the arrival point of a long mythographic tradition: its contribution to the emblematic and figurative culture of the 16th century it's basic. The images, based on a design by Bolognino Zaltieri, depict the gods according to a literary tradition that ignores the relationship with the ancient works of art actually visible in the sixteenth century.
