Sobre este item
The competition was fierce and the audience large for this beloved text, which presents the mythology of classical Antiquity in Ovid's famously witty style. Moss records fifty-two printings of the Metamorphoses in France from 1496 to 1560 in folio, quarto, octavo and sextodecimo. Gryphe and his heirs account for thirty-one percent of the total and over sixty percent of the small format editions. Slightly browned, the front free endleaf removed, Broili armorial bookplate.
