Summary

Treatise on the importance and meaning of colors by the Mantuan scholar and schoolmaster, Fulvio Pellegrino Morato, possibly designed as an artist's vade-mecum for the author's students. Morato discusses the significance of colors in heraldry, their hidden properties and qualities, and their symbolic and allegorical usage in literature, classical and contemporary, and in everyday life--horsemanship, war, social distinction, and liturgy. The second part presents this material in a shorter tabular form for herbs and flowers
