About This Item
Venice: G. Piuti, 1626. Brown calf-backed marbled boards (c. 1820), gilt-lettered spine title (spine chipped, hinges cracked), edges sprinkled red and brown. First Edition of this illustrated poem on a cause célèbre, the fierce loyalty and extraordinary friendship of two Venetian nobles, the wealthy Nicolò Barbarigo and the poor Marco Trevisano, who, in 1625, pledged their fortunes to each other in defiance of social mores. In good condition, a couple of uncut lower margins (half-title dusty, narrow pale stain to four margins, scattered light foxing, offsetting from the richly inked cuts), stamp of Laurent Pichat.
