Description from the seller

“Opera P. Virgilii Maronis, Poetae Mantuani.” 1624.

Beautiful large-format edition of Vergil’s works with numerous wood engravings.

The pages are throughout somewhat stained, occasionally a bit more so. There are also a few foxing spots.

With numerous pagination errors. Pages 238–239 were probably bound before page 232 in error.

Bound in a slightly flexible parchment binding of the period, this is somewhat stained.

Collation: 4 sheets, 334 numbered pages

Dimensions: 31.5 x 23 cm
