Engraved frontispiece, 15 plates, some folding. Contemporary full vellum, speckled edges. Provenance: nineteenth-century stamp on the title-page. [IN LOT WITH:] LIGUORO, Ottavio. Ristretto istorico dell'origine degli abitanti della Campagna di Roma, de' suoi Re, Consoli, Dittatori, delle Medaglie, Gemme, Intagli d'Imperadori, Imperadrici, Donne Auguste, e de' Tiranni sino a Postumo...
