FORESTI BERGOMENSE, Giacomo Filippo (1434-1520) - Nouissime hystoriarum omnium repercussiones. Venice: Albertino Da Lessona, 1503. A renowned edition of Foresti describing for the first time Christopher Columbus' voyage at pp. 441-442. Sabin 25083: "earliest considerable recognition of that important discoverer by any general author". The work also includes possibly the earliest view of Rome; Mortimer, I, 195: "Most of the small blocks used here by Albertino, the Tower of Babel, and the large views except for Milan are in the 1490 edition. The large view of Milan is new [..] Lipmann believes the view of Rome to be the oldest known [..] The invention of printing is recorded by Foresti under the year 1458 with a note that some believe the inventor to be Gutenberg, others Johann Fust or Nicolas Jenson. New to this edition is an account of the discovery of America under the year 1493". Folio (300 x 210mm). (Some leaves in facsimile among which a1-a2, a7-a8 and b2) Numerous views of cities and towns (without final blank, some leaves repaired and reinforced among which a3 and in a lighter manner the following leaves of the first gathering, b8, R3, some waterstaining at top margin, some other minor repairs and wormholes).
