Alfabeto Pittorico 2

Antonio Basoli’s Alfabeto Pittorico is a series of architectural-alphabetical engravings from 1839 — twenty-four letters and an ampersand. Basoli, a painter and designer from Bologna, created sets and curtains for the theater, and this alphabet has a lot of stagecraft to it. S is carved into a treacherous cliff, at the foot of which is a grave with a mourner.
