Rare illustrated edition of the Comedy , with illustrations illustrating the entire text of the Paradise; «it is judged to be the most beautiful of the illustrated editions of the DC made in Venice in the 15th century; it has an advantage over the one from 1491 for its richer decoration and over the other from 1497 for the typographical execution and the freshness of the wood» (Mambelli 15). Second edition of the Comedy printed by Matteo Capcasa, with Landino's commentary revised by Pietro da Figino (father Mazzanti from Figline); on the printer see De Batines I, 55-57: «Affò [...] opinò che sotto il various names of Matteo da Parma, Matteo Capocasa and Matteo de Chodeca there is truly one and the same printer, which Pezzana denies, maintaining that M. Capocasa and Giovanni di Matteo da Parma are two very distinct printers». The text is preceded by an Apology and the Life of Dante, and followed by the Creed, the Ten Commandments, the Seven Deadly Sins, the Pater Noster and the Ave Maria reduced to terza rima and attributed to Dante.
