Notes
  • Vol. 3, part 1.
  • Alphonso Patanazzi engraving: added engr. title page; etched armorial dedication leaf to Elena of Poland; facing page 1, a depiction of a secular woman, kneeling in prayer at her personal altar, prayer book in one hand and her young boy in the other, signed by Alphonso Patanazzi.
  • Isabella Piccini signed engraving: a dramatic scene facing page 58: Isabella Piccini’s own interpretation of Patanazzi’s scene. Here, the secular noblewoman is actively reaching for the feet of the extremely life-like Christ on the Cross, in order to kiss them. Her book lies before her open on a lectern, beside her prayer beads; her child seems agitated in the background, evidently annoyed at his mother’s religious fixation. Signed ‘Suor Isabella Piccini Religiosa Professa, in S.a Croce d’ Venetia Scolpi.’, after Nicolo Dorigato.
