Caprices: Title Page

Stefano Della Bella

Cleveland Museum of Art

The image depicts a rectangular piece of aged paper with a central design. The design features a decorative border with curved lines and swirls, forming a frame around text. The text reads "CAPRICE" on the first line, followed by "FAICT PAR DE LA BELLA" on the second line, then "Et mis en lumiere Par Israel" on the third line, and finally "Avec Privilege du Roy" on the fourth line. The text and design are in black ink. The background of the paper is off-white and has a rough texture. There are some small marks and imperfections on the paper, including a few darker spots and a handwritten note in the bottom-left corner that reads "DeV 104-106" and "Lacaze 115".
