In 4?(mm 233x155); cc. n.n. 441 di 442 (manca la carta bianca finale). Testo in elegante carattere corsivo, racchiuso dal commento in corpo minore. Con 3 splendide illustrazioni xilografiche a piena pagina e altre 84 nel testo attribuite allo stesso Marcolini, ottimo disegnatore nonchË amico di Tiziano e Sansovino. Solida legatura in piena pelle della fine del XVIII secolo; dorso liscio con titolo su tassello verde in oro, filetti dorati. Esemplare freschissimo con trascurabili segni del tempo alla legatura e piccoli restauri alla cuffia sup., spellature al piatto inf. e alle cerniere. Frontespizio con restauro al margine esterno e piccola possibile nota di possesso abrasa e restaurata; 14 carte + altre 8 con piccolo camminamento di tarlo nel margine interno in basso che non lede il testo; sporadiche e fisiologiche macchiette, sporco superficiale allíangolo inf. delle carte iniziali, qualche lieve alone marginale in alto alle prime due cc. e al margine inf. per circa 40 carte alla fine. Prima edizione del commento del Vellutello alla Commedia, per le cure del Marcolini, che segue a pochi anni di distanza i commenti a Petrarca (1525) e a Virgilio (1533). Magnifica e rara, molto ambita edizione veneziana del Marcolini, difficile da reperirsi in buone condizioni, proprio per la divulgazione popolare che ebbe. Ritenuta la prima illustrazione moderna della Divina Commedia, che serve da esempio per tutte le altre edizioni cinquecentesche, oltre ad essere tra le pi? ricercate edizioni dantesche del Cinquecento. Come descritto da Fische a p. 8, tre versi del Purgatorio (II, 64-66; segn V7r) furono originariamente omessi per errore e integrati in un secondo momento con tre linee impresse a mano: si trova in quasi tutti gli esemplari, sempre con inchiostrature diverse e allineamenti differenti tra una linea e l'altra o in orizzontale.

Store description
Libreria Antiquaria Perini was founded in Como in 1968 by Carlo and Ruth Perini, who moved to Verona in 1970 and in 1972 based the gallery in via Sciesa 11. It's now ruled by Alberto and Marcus Perini, the second generation in this family-business, with the help of Marcus' wife Antonella. We published 50 catalogues of antique and rare books, maps, decorative prints and old masters. We recently increased our inventory and interests opening a window on the modern market of contemporary masters and vintage posters.…
