Nova Stella
The book whose cover is reproduced here is a 1768 publication of Missale Sacri Ordinis Praedicatorum, a volume containing instructions and texts for priests to use at mass throughout the year. It was published in Rome by Octavio Puccinelli, whose publications can still be found in major libraries worldwide, including the Museum Kunstpalast in Düsseldorf, Germany, where this binding resides.
An 18th-century binding like this differs from its 17th-century counterparts in how ornaments fill the space of the surface. In the 1700s, binders would direct more of their efforts toward fashioning exquisite frames. The middle section would often remain blank or, as in this case, would feature a central object to complete the composition.
