8vo, pp. [16], '360' (i.e. 350), [2 (blank)]; printer's woodcut fountain device to title, woodcut initial and headpiece; scattered light dampstaining and toning, a few marks, small wormtrack (larger in quire K); a good copy in contemporary Italian vellum sewn on two cords sewn in; 1628 note to front free endpaper in Italian, upper cover lettered in Latin in the same hand; late seventeenth- or early eighteenth-century ownership inscription 'Giovanni Maria Gallarino' to front free endpaper.First edition of over 150 letters by the poet and scholar Ottavio Rossi (15701630), printed in his native city of Brescia and including a letter to the painter Palma Giovane, our copy with a contemporary manuscript note on the artist's final moments written mere days after his death. Bartolomeo Fontana, here both compiler and printer, had previously published Rossi's account of notable Brescians, Elogi historici de bresciani illustri. Among Rossi's interlocutors are Francesco Cornaro, Doge of Venice, as well as Lorenzo Pignoria and the Baroque poets Antonio Beffa Negrini and Angelo Grillo; subjects range from requests for books (pp. 389, 271) to protection from enemies who have falsely accused Rossi of disfiguring a certain 'ignorant poet' (p. 94); Rossi's paranoia about burglary or betrayal (e.g. p. 110) is a recurrent theme. Our copy bears a curious inscription by a contemporary owner, noting that word was received from Venice on 21 October 1628 that less than a week earlier, 'on Monday 16 October, the most excellent painter Giacomo Palma, celebrated in our time, died at the age of about eighty after several days of ailment' (trans.). Giacomo Palma, or Palma Giovane (15441628), nephew of Palma Vecchio, was another of Rossi's correspondents: Rossi's letter to the Venetian painter (pp. 1545) requests a drawing of Venus and Adonis flanked by two dogs and two to three putti, and calls Palma 'il piu celebre Pittor del Mondo' (the drawing is perhaps that of c. 1620 now held at the Minneapolis Institute of Art). 'After the death of Tintoretto in 1594, Palma Giovane became the most esteemed artist in Venice After 1610 he painted a few mythologies for a small circle of intellectuals that included the poet Giambattista Marino. His fame led to innumerable commissions outside Venice, in various regions of Italy, the Dalmation coast and including the courts of the emperor Rudolf II and of King Sigismund III of Poland' (Grove online). The upper cover is lettered in Latin in the same hand, and contains extracts from Ambrose ('Divitiae sicut impedimenta sunt improbis .'), Augustine, the Epistle of St James ('Judicium enim sine misericordia illi qui non fecit misericordiam'), and Bede.Provenance:1. Contemporary note to front free endpaper: 'Di Venetia li 21 d'ottobre 1628 scrivono, che lunedi 16 d'o[ttobre]. passo' all'altra vita dopo alquanti giorni d'indispositione, l'ecc.mo Giacomo Palma Pittor celebre a nostri tempi, nell'eta sua di circa ottant'anni'. 2. Ownership inscription 'Di me D. Giovanni Maria Gallarino', perhaps the contralto Giovanni Maria Gallarini employed at S. Gaudenzio in Novara, Piedmont from 1687 to 1710. Outside continental Europe, we find two copies in the UK (BL, CUL), and one in the US (Newberry).BM STC Italian, p. 800; USTC 4008187. Language: Italian.

(28), 519 pp. Provenance: Dr Richard Luckett (1945-2020), Research Fellow of St Catharine's, Cambridge.Constance Jocelyn Ffoulkes (1858?1950) or Monsignor Rodolfo Maiocchi (1862-1924). (see "Vincenzo Foppa of Brescia: Founder of the Lombard School, His Life and Work", p. 79).Bernardino Faino (1600-1673). A most interesting copy with a fascinating provenance of the rare first edition of Rossi?s famous account of notable people and families from Brescia which, still today, is considered one of the most important late Renaissance and early Baroque sources to Brescia and the surrounding area. The present copy has belonged to Bernadino Faino, himself a notable Brescian. Faino has made numerous marginal corrections and annotations, many of which are of scholarly interest. For instance, the marginal annotations in the present copy possibly contain the only dating (1472) we have of the altarpiece by Vincenzo Foppa in Church of S. Maria Maddalena at Brescia (See Ffoulkes & Maiocchi, ?Vincenzo Foppa of Brescia?, p. 79). Bernadino Faino (1600-1673) was an Italian priest and historian whose life was characterized by both adventurous exploits and scholarly pursuits. Instead of continuing in the family trade as a blacksmith, Faino chose a military career, joining Captain Tiberio Tengatini's company in the Venetian Republic's army. His loyalty to Tengatini led to a dramatic episode where he avenged his captain's murder by killing the perpetrator. This act resulted in a trial and his imprisonment, but he was eventually acquitted in 1626. In an unexpected turn, Faino was ordained as a priest in 1627, despite the serious charges he had faced. He served as chaplain and confessor at the Benedictine monastery of S. Spirito and was the General Superior of the Company of S. Orsola. His dedication to his ecclesiastical duties extended to his role as a caretaker of the Cathedral and director of the school of Christian Doctrine. Late in life, Faino turned to the study of hagiography and local ecclesiastical history - the period during which he most likely made the annotations in the present work. His works were the product of diligent document collection and scholarly effort. He authored various texts on archaeology, heraldry, and the history of Brescia, though his claims, especially regarding local saints, were often fantastical and primarly a product of his imagination.
