Subject
Letterpress form headed with an etching, filled out in manuscript.
Description
A form used by the nuns of the Abbey of SS. Naborre e Felice in Bologna to summon outsiders to their convent. Here the recipient was a lawyer whose expertise was needed in 1767 to certify a land deal with the monastery of San Giorgio and to record a bequest. The etching—depicting St. Clare with the abbey’s titular saints—is by Lodovico Mattioli (1662-1747), who produced ephemeral prints for several convents in Bologna.
