Description

FIRST EDITION of this edition of Pibrac's quatrains, accompanied by a facing-page translation into Latin couplets by Harbet, a close advisor to Louis XIV. 8, 53 pp. + an outstanding engraved portrait (dated 1666 and often missing) of Dionyse Marin, the dedicatee, by Nicolas de Larmessin after Jean de Dieu. Beautifully printed in large italic (French text) and Roman (Latin text) types, on very fine laid paper. 4to. Early plain wraps. Wraps a bit worn, internally FINE AND BRIGHT. Early editions of Pibrac are usually printed in small format with small types, and this edition is a welcome exception. Very rare, especially in such pristine condition.
