Ornithologiae by Ulisse Aldrovandi, published in 1603 in Italy, in Latin as the original language, one copy, in good condition.

AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Elegant frontispiece with old coloring of the third volume of the famous Ornithology by Ulisse Aldrovandi, eminent Italian naturalist, dated 1603.

The title with the dedication is set in a temple with allegories of Glory and Fame, as well as eight coats of arms with Latin mottos or verses from the Scriptures and the Aeneid, flanked by Mercury and Eros.

The sheet measures 35.5 x 23.5 cm; the condition is good, although it appears slightly browned and with some peripheral staining. There are two creases in the paper and a backing on the reverse.

Careful and prompt shipping in a dedicated rigid tube.
