About This Item
Venice: Nella tipografia Picotti, 1810. Only edition. Very Good. Octavo (24 cm); [2], 61, [1] pages. Bound in woodblock-printed polychrome wraps, with the poet's name written in ink along the spine. Only slight abrasions at the head, else about fine.
The notable bibliographer Bartolommeo Gamba curated this collection of poems by his neighbor in the town of Bassano del Grappa, Giuseppe Bombardini. Bombardini's day job was in local government, rising finally to the rank of "podestà," the equivalent of the mayoralty. Among the poems written to commemorate weddings and funerals, we find Romantic sonnets dedicated to the summer night, to the Brenta, to two roses, to the month of May.

About Rodger Friedman Rare Book Studio
Rodger Friedman Rare Book Studio owes its name and its inspiration to the traditional Italian studio bibliografico. These small antiquarian bookshops, typically run by individuals who combine deep scholarship with a love of the printed object, remind us that underlying the words "study" and "studio" is the Latin term for zeal and devotion, studium. Since 1993, my goal has been to match discerning collectors with extraordinary books and manuscripts.
