Sobre este artículo
Roma: l'Editore Tommaso Cuccioni. First Edition Presumed. Blindstamped Cloth. . Very Good Plus. N.d., circa 1840. Large paper version: folio, 34 by 24 cm. With 39 hand-colored costume plates, plus engraved title page with hand-colored vignette. These images of Vatican dress, both which cover both ecclessiastic and military costume, are generally encountered in a far smaller, leporello format, with also fewer images -- typically thirty plates. In this other guise, the target audience were the many tourists who paid a visit to Rome and were enamored with a pocket souvenir. The diminutive leporello assuredly exudes enormous charm that has not diminished over nearly two centuries, but the images really do not quite match these original Marroni engravings with their excellent detailing and glorious hand-coloring, and we would stress, the coloring is not only brilliant, but also it would appear not to have lost one bit of lustre from the day it was applied to paper. Scattered soiling, mostly on the first few leaves and the fore-edge, and a few light finger smudes, not affecting the imagery. Moderate wear to the red cloth. A few white spots along rear edge.
