About This Item

Padua / Brescia, 1755 / 1762: two works in one quarto volume (25 x 12 cm), twentieth-century antique full vellum binding, with elegant handwritten title on spine, sprinkled edges. First work: Padua, Giovambattista Penada, 1755, pp. CLXIX-(2) with a large copper-engraved vignette on the title page, skillfully executed woodcut initials, head- and end-pieces; second work: Brescia, Pietro Pianta, 1762, pp. 37 with a large animated copper-engraved vignette on the title page, one animated copper-engraved head-piece, one woodcut end-piece, and a woodcut printer's mark on the colophon. Large restoration to the outer white margin of the title page of the first work; otherwise a fine copy, fresh and tall. The first one is a very interesting work (e.g. for highlighting the role of technological innovation, or for recognizing the importance of luxury goods - an idea later developed by Werner Sombart), which gives great importance to Venice's maritime activities. Scarce. Einaudi, 4758. =========== Padova / Brescia, 1755 / 1762: due opere rilegate in un volume in-4° (cm. 25 x 12), legatura rifatta in piena pergamena antica con titolo manoscritto al dorso, tagli spruzzati: Padova, appresso Giovambattista Penada, 1755, pp. CLXIX-(2) con grande vignetta incisa in rame al frontespizio, capolettere, testatine e finalini xilografici abilmente eseguiti; Brescia, nella stamperia di Pietro Pianta, 1762, pp. 37 con grande vignetta animata incisa in rame al frontespizio, una testata e un capolettera animati incisi in rame, un finale xilografico e una marca tipografica sempre in xilografia al colophon. Forte mancanza, restaurata, al margine bianco esterno del frontespizio della prima opera; peraltro volume in ottimo stato di conservazione, fresco e ad ampi margini. Opera molto interessante (per esempio per il risalto all'innovazione tecnica o per il riconoscimento dell'importanza del lusso in economia - idea più tardi sviluppata dal Sombart), in cui viene dato grande risalto alle attività marittime di Venezia. Non comune. Einaudi, 4758.
