Description:
Based in a trove of previously unknown documents discovered in Florence by Gino Corti. "When the transcribed documents arrived in St. Louis, about two-thirds of them turned out to be the long-missing material covering the construction and decoration of the Chapel of the Cardinal of Portugal... These records, contained in the ledgers of the Cambini bank, which had been entrusted with the disbursement of the immense sums paid out for the chapel and its works of art, were preserved in the archives of the Ospedale degli Innocenti. With a completeness unexampled in any other monument of the Quattrocento, they clocked, almost from day to day, the progress of work in the chapel... Corti's find was a discovery of the first importance. ..." 192 pages of text, 4 color plates, 152 black & white photograph plates; 31 cm. Bound in cream linen, slightly soiled, no dust jacket, bookplate of Sam Hough; binding Good, book internally Very Good. Stock#ofc0657.

Description:
New Haven, Yale U Press, 2000. "Examines the formation of the new career of printmaker during the late fifteenth and throughout the sixteenth century in Italy. Focuses particularly on the practical relationship between the ancient skill of drawing and the more modern techniques of artisans who made prints by engraving images into copper or wood." Lincoln builds her discussions around the work of three printmakers practicing at different times and under varying economic opportunities and restraints: Andrea Mantegna in Mantua, Domenico Beccafumi in Siena, and Diana Mantuana (Diana Scultori) in Rome. Stock#41933x. Fine; new from publisher.

Description:
"Leonardo called his notebooks 'a collection without order taken from many papers which I have copied here, hoping afterward to arrange them in order, each in its place, according to the subjects treated of.' He died before he could carry out this plan. Now more than 400 years after his death, the contemplated arrangement has been made in a manner which Leonardo would surely have approved. The notebooks thus reveal the philosopher, scientist, painter, sculptor, astronomer, architect, geographer, inventor, musician, 'perhaps the most richly gifted by nature among all the sons of men'." Two volumes: 655, 640 pages, 64 plates; 26 cm. A few rough openings; a very few pencil marks; minor smudges on dust jackets; Very Good in sturdy linen-covered slipcase. Stock#ofc0656.

Description:
"Offset reprint of the edition published in 1964." Series: Sussidi Eruditi 16. Forewords to first & second editions by Mario Praz. "Although emblems and devices have been the object of some research, chiefly of a bibliographical nature, until the present there has been no comprehensive study which has sought to see them in the light of the taste of the centuries in which they flourished. Usually they are looked upon as curiosities, oddities and aberrations, and very lightly dismissed. The only scholar who has tried to explain their origin, Ludwig Volkmann, by tracing them back to the hieroglyphs ('Bilderschriften der Renaissance', Leipzig, 1923), skims over the vast literature of emblems, and considers only those aspects of it which are derived from hieroglyphs. ...In the third chapter of the present study I have attempted for the first time to make a critical survey of this rare literature which i have been able to examine thanks partly to the great libraries of London, Oxford, and The Hague,…
