Edition Notes
Woodcut text and plates by Giovanni Andrea Valvassori.
Four issues are described in Schreiber's Manuel de l'amateur de la gravure ... au XVe siècle, v. 4 (1902) p. 105-113. This copy resembles issue d in having E5 and H5 printed in round characters, but differs in that the Madonna cut at end is not surrounded by a border, but has side borders only, apparently corresponding in this respect to Schreiber's issue c. Cf. also V. Masséna, prince d'Essling, duc de Rivoli, Livres ̉figures vňitiens, pt. 1, v. 1 (1907) p. 201-211; C. W. Dyson Perrins, Italian book-illustrations and early printing, 1914, no. 251; T. de Marinis, Anciens livres à figures italiens, 1925, no. 136.
An imitation of the Biblia pauperum.
Signatures: A-H⁸ (H8 blank and wanting).
Rosenwald 28
