Francesco Petrarch's short poem the 'Triumphs' was written between 1340 and 1374. Petrarch's triumphs are those of Love Chastity Death Fame Time and Eternity. Herein each Triumph is illustrated with an engraving by an anonymous artist of the Early Florentine School. The final three leaves have to do with Sir Sidney Colvin's Notes upon the Engravings in which he states - "Of far greater artistic value is the set of six prints in the broad manner here reproduced as nearly as may be in facsimile. The are among the best as well as the rarest works of early Florentiine engravings. Only two sets in the pure early state are known to exist; one if at the British Museum which is that here reproduced and one in the collection of M. ED. de Rothschild." Attributions of this group have included Nicoletto da Modena Bartsch Baccio Baldini Kollof and an anonymous craftsman influenced by Pesellino and Francesco Lippi Hind. However the set is now almost universally recognized as the work of Francesco Rosselli. Printed for John Murray by the University Press hardcover
