Emblem 'Nupta contagiosa' from Alciato's Emblematum fontes
A woodcut emblem beneath the printed heading 'Nupta contagiosa': a stooped, ragged figure in a long robe shuffles through an arched colonnade toward a distant landscape. Below the image, four lines of Latin verse in italic type comment on the scene in the book's text block.
