Book Details
Edition Notes
No more published.
Except for the change in imprint, the engraved t.p. is that of the 1557 ed. (see Mortimer, R. Italian 16th cent., 532). The plates have the added Roman numbering of the 1557 2nd state. The engraving has been reworked, at times extensively.
Library's copy consists of t.p. and plates only.
The plates in Library's copy frequently depart from numerical order. There is no plate numbered XI, but an unnumbered plate that corresponds to no. XI in Library's copy of the 1557 ed. appears between nos. XXVIII and XXIX. Similarly while there are no plates numbered XLI or XLVI, there are 2 unnumbered plates bound between nos. III and V and nos. XXII and XXIV, but these do not appear in the 1557 ed.
Binding: modern vellum over pasteboard. Gold-tooled spine title: LE IMAGINE / DELLE DONNE / AVGVSTE / [RULE] / RELIQVAE / AVGVSTARVM / IMAGINES / [RULE] / AEN. VICO. Top edges red.
An initial added blank in Library's copy has a vertical inscription in black ink: William Blakiston Bowes; also an entry from a bookseller's catalog has been mounted. T.p. signed at foot in blue ink: Marcello Canalli Abbati. Bookplate of Peter Seaby on front pastedown.
Library's copy bound with the author's: Reliquae augustarum imagines. Venice : Franco, ca. 1600.
