Specialist Notes
Beautiful and famous edition printed in a small number of copies for the wedding of Teresa Colonna to Alessandro Torlonia: each sheet is of watermarked paper with the spouses' weapons. It is the best and most complete collection of rhymes by the well-known poetess (1490-1547). An example of notable freshness, splendid, in its original artistic binding.
