AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Divine Comedy Palatino 313 - Pal. 313
Florence, National Central Library
Copy number: 5
14th century
236 pages
Application of gold leaf by hand
Parchment treated by hand
Binding crafted by hand
Leather flower with natural tanning
Hand stitching
Inlaid on ancient paper
Considered the oldest illuminated Divine Comedy known, the Palatino 313 codex contains 37 precious miniatures attributed to the workshop of Pacino di Buonaguida, with a style reflecting a preeminence of Giottesque taste in the illustration of the poem. According to historical sources, Dante would have known Giotto in Padua during the execution of the frescoes in the Scrovegni Chapel, likely influencing this iconography.
The manuscript includes a large portion of Jacopo Alighieri's commentary, son of Dante, identifiable by the sigla “Jac” in the marginal notes, though often corrupted or altered. Jacopo was a commentator of the first cantica and a point of reference for understanding the text in Florence at the time.
Written in elegant littera textualis, the codex presents a history of ownership that includes the Florentine scholar Piero Del Nero, the Guadagni family and finally Gaetano Poggiali, who used it for his 1807 edition of the Divine Comedy.
