Stake attention in this memory
An interior shot captures a museum display with an informational plaque and several books. The plaque, titled "Marche tipografiche," describes typographic marks, emblems, and insignia used by printers, booksellers, and editors to distinguish their works and guarantee authenticity. It highlights the case of Lodovico Dolce, whose book "Somma della filosofia d'Aristotele, e prima della dialettica" was published in Venice by Giovani Battista e Melchiorre Sessa in 1565. The text notes that Dolce, a Venetian divulgator, was investigated multiple times by the Tribunal of the Holy Office of Venice but always acquitted, partly due to the typographic mark of the Sessa brothers, which depicted Pegasus, the winged horse, against an alpine landscape. The display includes images of these typographic marks. In the lower right corner of the image, text reads "Didascalia: L.C. MUSEO DEL LIBRO Casa della Cultura Palazzo Appippo 19.08.2026 11:23." This indicates the location is the Museum of the Book, House of Culture, Palazzo Appippo, and the date and time of the photograph were August 19, 2026, at 11:23. The background shows bookshelves filled with books, suggesting the context of a library or archive.
