Florence, Italy: Appresso Giuseppe Allegrini. Very Good+. 1773. Hardcover. A series of portraits of illustrious Tuscan men with historical histories of the same ... measuring 18 x 14 1/2 inches in contemporary (original) 18th Century patterned paper boards and half parchment binding which is severely damaged and stained with heavy loss at the top of the spine. The contents also show damage including old dampstaining throughout, which is at times heavy in the inner hinges and upper margins but which fortunately affects only 4 or 5 of the 52 glorious copper engraved portraits. A handsome production with defects but would serve well for reading or research. .
