Library: Late in his career John Baskerville printed an edition of Orlando Furioso for the Molini brothers an Italian printing firm based in Paris. This beautiful four-volume set of Ariosto’s 50000 line poem is illustrated with forty-six engraving plus a frontispiece designed by some of the most celebrated artists of that time. A new engraving begins each new episode of the author’s work and the artists appear to have been given much freedom in their designs. The twenty-one artists don’t often get credit and so here’s the complete list. Frontispiece portrait is after a painting by Titian ca. 1485/90-1576 drawn by Charles Dominique Joseph Eisen 1720-1778 and engraved by Etienne Ficquet 1719-1794.The plates were designed by Giovanni Battista Cipriani 1727-1785; Charles Nicolas Cochin II 1715-1790; Charles Dominique Joseph Eisen 1720-1778; Jean-Baptiste Greuze 1725-1805; Charles Monnet 1732-after 1808; Jean-Michel Moreau the Younger 1741-1814.The engravings were cut by Francesco Bartolozzi 1728-1815; Pierre Philippe Choffard 1730-1809; Antoine Jean Duclos 1742-1795; Emmanuel Jean de Ghendt 1738-1815; Isidore Stanislas Henri Helman 1743-1806/9; Benott Louis Henriquez 1732-1806; Nicolas de Launay 1739-1792; Joseph de Longueil 1730-1792; Pietro Antonio Martini 1738-1797; Jean Massard 1740-1822; Jean-Michel Moreau the Younger 1741-1814; Nicolas Ponce 1746-1831; Benoit Louis Prevost 1747-ca. 1804; and Jean-Baptiste-Blaise Simonet 1742-after 1813.

Large octavo 7" x 10" bound in early full vellum 16 654 32 pages. The complete and corrected ORLANDO FURIOSO with Ruscelli's dedication to the Duke of Ferrara dated 1556 and an account of the life of Ariosto by Battista Pigna. Illustrated with an engraved title page 51 full-page woodcuts ornamental headpieces and initial letters. The woodcuts within decorative borders are after the designs of Dossa Dossi the Ferrarese painter and are printed from the blocks of the first Valgrisi quarto editon of 1556. First published in 1516 this classic Italian romantic epic influenced many later works including Spenser's THE FAERIE QUEENE and Shakespeare's MUCH ADO ABOUT NOTHING. The action takes place against the background of the war between Charlemagne and his Christian paladins and the Saracen army which is attempting to invade Europe. However Ariosto has little concern for historical or geographical accuracy and the poem wanders at will from Japan to the Hebrides as well as including many fantastical and magical elements such as a trip to the moon and an array of fantastical creatures including a gigantic sea monster called the orc and the hippogriff. The poem grew in popularity as well in size after Ariosto's death increasing from 40 to 46 cantos in 1532 and finally to the finished form of 51 cantos. F. Valgrisi and N. Moretti hardcover
