[ASTRONOMIA] - Manoscritto astronomico. Italy: 1650.

An interesting astronomical manuscript, richly illustrated, which opens with a large folded map depicting the "Sistema, ovvero figura del mondo secondo l’optione antica" followed by a generalist treatment of the solar system, the earth and the zodiac. The respective characteristics and motion of the moon, sun and planets and the influence of these in the fields of medicine, agriculture, fishing and hunting are then described in detail. The second part is dedicated to the construction of sundials and opens with a geometry section to culminate with the indications for the construction of different types of sundials. The dating can be seen on p. 16 of the first section where the author writes "quest’anno santo del 1650 ne abbiamo l’iniditione".

(235 x 170mm). A large plate folded several times, a double page table, 38 text leaves with numerous illustrations, tables and diagrams written in red and black (some slight tears on the folded paper, occasional slight stains). Modern half-vellum.
