Ludovico Ariosto (dit) L'ARIOSTE

Orlando Furioso

appresso Gabriel Giolito de Ferrari , In Vinegia (Venise) 1547, in-8 (10,5x16cm), 227 ff. (29f.) - Sig.A-Z 8 Aa-Ff8 *-***8, relié.

 (Venice), bound.
A handsome illustrated edition and one of the first printed by Gabriele Giolito de Ferrari, dedicated to the Dauphin of France. It has a superb engraved title with Giolito's printer's device (a phoenix being reborn from its ashes on a globe marked with the printer's initials), 56 attractive woodcuts and numerous large ornate capitals, as well as a portrait of Ariosto after Titian in a medallion at the end of the poem, and two states of the printer's device.
The end of the work is made up of a vocabulary of obscure words and an explanation of the difficult passages in the work compiled by Lodovico Dolce, with a separate title and not included in the pagination. Giolito published more than twenty books in thirteen years of printing - this is the third edition of this work, the first appearing in 1542 and the second in 1543.
Printed in round Roman type, double column.
Late 17th or early 18th century red morocco, spine richly gilt in six compartments, one compartment marked with "lettres rondes [round Roman type]". Covers with a frame of triple gilt fillets, gilt roulette frame to insides of covers, all edges gilt. Binding a little rubbed, faint dampstaining to end of volume.
A handsome copy in a lovely red morocco binding.
