Parma: in aedibus Palatinis Typis Bodonianis 1791. Contemporary gold-tooled green morocco with the title lettered in gold on the spine gold-tooled board edges and turn-ins shiny pink endpapers with a frame of small silver leaves mounted on the pastedowns. 16mo in 4s 15 x 11 cm. With a small engraved portrait of Anacreon in a roundel on the title-page a small engraved portrait of the dedicatee J. N. de Azara in a roundel on the dedication page. Part of the text is set in Greek type. Beautiful copy of Anacreon's poems printed in Greek and Latin capitals that Bodoni had designed and cut especially for his Anacreon editions. The first of these splendid editions was printed in 1785. Our copy is one of 150 printed. A first 8vo edition was printed by Bodoni in 1784 but the 1785 and 1791 editions are by far the most gorgeous and from a philological viewpoint the best. Brooks no. 421 furthermore mentions a 16mo-edition also printed in 1791. The book aroused the admiration of the famous bibliographer Dibdin who wrote in his classic bibliography Greek and Latin classics p. 265: "The Bodoni edition of 1785 and 1791 is printed in capital letters and more elegant and exquisitely finished productions cannot be conceived".Our copy comes from the library of the Comte D. Boutourlin 1763-1829 a Russian soldier military historian politician and librarian of the Imperial Russian Library. He was one of the most outstanding book collectors of 19th-century Russia and he formed an important library which was unfortunately destroyed during the burning of Moscow in 1812. His second large collection of which a catalogue was published in 1831 in 200 copies was formed during his retirement in Florence. It contained 244 important early manuscripts 964 15th-century books many of which were unrecorded a very complete Bodoni collection and other outstanding items 7929 in all. The book was later owned by the Comte Chandon de Briailles whose bookplate is pasted on first flyleaf: "Au Conte Chandon de Briailles". This is most likely Raoul Chandon de Briailles 1850-1908 historian and wine merchant founder of the Chandon de Briailles mark of champagne part of whose rich library was bequeathed to the Médiathèque at Épernay.With the large armorial bookplate of Comte Chandon D. Boutourlin on the verso of the first free flyleaf and the bookplate of Comte de Briailles on the recto of the second free flyleaf. The binding shows very slight signs of wear internally only very slightly foxed. Otherwise in very good condition.l Brooks 422; De Lama II p. 66; Giani Cat. p. 40 no. 17; Palaia & Moscatelli 141; Quand la simplicité devient art 46; cf. Catalogue de la Bibliothèque de son Exc.

Place Not Identified: Publisher Unstated. Very Good. 1790. First Edition. Softcover. 2 p.l. & 92 pages; Very scarce first edition of Count Xaverio Broglio d'Ajano's verse translation of odes by Anacreon into Italian. It was probably printed somewhere in Italy around 1790 though there is no date printed. It probably was made in the Marche near Macerata where the translator was a Senator in the Repubblica romana. The date comes from a catalogue entry in the database of the Istituto Centrale per il Catalogo Unico delle biblioteche italiane e per le informazioni bibliografiche - ICCU. This handsome octavo version was printed to celebrate the wedding of Carlo Teodoro Antici de' marchesi di Pesci and donna Marianna Mattei de' duchi di Giove - which does contribute some element of precision to the estimate of its date of issue. It is bound in jolly contemporary wrappers with a printed floral pattern. This is a large copy in original condition with large margins - at least a few fore-edges show deckles. A few leaves of the high-quality laid paper have a blue tinge; 220 years ago this may have been printed on special blue paper. The long-lived translator born a Count in 1749 had to wait nearly forty years to see a regularly published version of this text published in small 24mo format: Verona : tipografia di Pietro Bisesti 1829. This rare undated first edition from about 1790 is not in OCLC none in the British Library none in the French Bibliotheque Nationale. ICCU database locates two copies: Accademia Georgica - Treia; and Biblioteca internazionale La Vigna - Vicenza. A clean unmarked copy with some splitting to the gutter hinge of the front wrapper but still attached. Handsome and rare. ; Experience the pleasure of reading and appreciating this actual printed item. It has its own physical history that imbues it with a character lacking in ephemeral electronic renderings. . Publisher Unstated paperback
