Zustand: Fine. Tenutosi In Milano Nei Giorni 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23 Settembre 1881 Italy's top minds unite in 1881 to save viticulture from phylloxera. Pp. XVI, 174, [1]. Original light pink printed wrappers. Hardly visible slight foxing on a few leaves; very tiny losses at the upper right corner from p. 137 onward, more than 1 inch from the text. Excellent condition. Scarce and important proceedings from the first Italian congress devoted entirely to vine diseases, held in Milan in 1881. This was a foundational event in the scientific history of European viticulture, marking a turning point in the response to the great vineyard crises of the late 19th century. Figures such as Giovanni Battista Cavazza, Prospero Rizzolini, Giuseppe di Rovasenda, and Targioni Tozzetti of Florence were among the most prominent contributors.
