Historical-Criticism news
Stesso legno della scheda 1341/SILA.
Simbolo: il grifone fa pensare subito alla marca dei Grifi con i quali Girolamo Scotti fu in relazione, secondo la testimonianza della Pastorello, ma in questa figurazione c'è un elemento nuovo: l'anfora sulla quale poggia il mostro, il quale non ha muso di aquila bensì di felino. Inoltre il Volpati dice che Girolamo fu in società con il cugino Francesco Scotti, che aveva la sua azienda al confinio di S. Salvatore e per insegna il grifone.
Bibl.: Past., 391/1; Volpati, pp. 378-379. E. Vaccaro.
