75/5799 Tozzi, P.P. (act. 1596-1627). (Festive arch erected in front of the St. Peter basilica in Rome on the occasion of the canonization of Carlo Borromeo on 1. November 1610). Engraving, 1610, 22x16,8 cm. (platemark), letterpress caption below.

= Rare printed ephemera, perhaps for visitors as a souvenir commemorating the canonization in 1610. The arch is embellished with statues of other canonized archbishops ("effigies sanctorum archiepiscorum mediolani"), each identified in letterpress below. A larger version of this print by Mattheus Greuter is known, but this version by Tozzi not traced.
