Inspired by an Italian book binding dating to 1620, this cover showcases a floral pattern and rosette motif. The original book contained a series of illustrations in the "tondo" form, a Renaissance style of circular art. Once a popular artistic style in ancient Greece, tondo experienced a brief revitalisation by Italian artists during the 15th and 16th centuries. Book bindings from the 17th century are characterised by the ornamental richness of the cover's central area. Featuring sweeping tendrils in a centralised diamond shape, this cover is a classic example of the era's bookbinding style.
