Description

LIMITED EDITION OF 306 COPIES. RARE large, ornate edition of Dante Alighieri's 'Divine Comedy', published on the alleged 700th anniversary of the Comedia. The text is heavily annotated, and is prefaced by the Italian poet Gabriele D'Annunzio. The edition features numerous woodcuts and text decorations reproduced from the 15th-century Venice edition of the Comedia. This exemplar is not numbered, meaning it is probably one of the first 6 copies. 415x310mm. XI+524 pages. Brown cloth Hardcover, masterfully restored from a damaged and partially missing cover. Cover corners bumped. Pages wavy with somewhat rough edges. Pages slightly yellowing. [SUMMARY]: In spite of the damage to cover it has previously sustained, this rare and impressive edition of a great literary masterpiece has been restored and is in good condition. PLEASE NOTE: This item is overweight. We may ask for extra shipping costs.
