Beschreibung

Venice, no publisher mentioned, 1579. Marbled and polished calf (17th-18th century) with four ribs and title on the spine. (4), 744, (4) p. Beautiful wood-carved printer's mark. Binding somewhat worn, the ropes are visible in the joints. On the back a cup has left a stain in earlier centuries. A few 18th- or 19th-century numbers refer to old libraries. Name of a former owner on the title in pale red ink ('Lohier'). In the same colour ink, all pages, from 1-744, are provided with neatly drawn frames that separate the text block from the comments and the surrounding white areas and headers! Paper slightly browned at the beginning and end. Here and there a wormhole in the margin. Letters from Cicero to his friend and publisher Titus Pomponius Atticus, with the biography of Cicero by Atticus, edited by the French scholar Dionysius Lambinus (Denys Lambin, 1520-1572), in a typographical gem. The printer's mark without indication of a publisher, but with the motto 'Concordia' refers to a temporary collaboration of publishers. Bestandsnummer des Verkäufers 276569
