Lot 247 | DU PERAC Etienne (1520-1607) - [I Vestigi dell'Antichità di Roma raccolti et ritratti in perspettiva]
DU PERAC Etienne (1520-1607) - [I Vestigi dell'Antichità di Roma raccolti et ritratti in perspettiva]. [Rome: 1575-1621?]. First published in 1575, Du Perac's collection of views of Roman antiquities is a key source for the state of the Roman monuments as they existed in the 16th century. This copy is probably the 1621 edition although the plates correspond to the digital copy of the first edition of the BIASA library in Rome. Oblong folio (259 x 410mm). 39 plates numbered 2-40 (lacking frontispiece and engraved dedication, first plate reinforced with loss to bottom margin, some other repairs to other plates, waterstaining to bottom margin, some other stains, few small wormholes in margins). Contemporary vellum (some staining). Provenance: M.A.M. (initials in margins of final plate).
