€ 1 200 – 1 800
First edition and first issue of the French version by F. Beroalde Verville (1556-1626) of the Hypnerotomachia Poliphili. The second edition, more commonly found on the market, has the coat of arms of Louis XIII at *2r (datable after 1610) and does not have the privilege that is present here at 5*3v. The work highlights the alchemical aspects of the celebrated Hypnerotomachia and the woodcuts are reused from Kerver's edition of 1546 and show some wear.
4to (265 x 205mm). Fine title within an elaborate woodcut border, woodcut initials and headpieces, numerous illustrations in text, many full-page, with final blank at the end of the preface (browned and with some foxing). Contemporary vellum, manuscript title on spine (some staining and damaged spine).
