- first
A famous book on famous women - with numerous ornamental four-line woodcut initials, a large illustrated woodcut border and 81 (2 repeated) woodcuts by the Master of the Ulm Boccaccio
This is the first edition of Boccaccio's celebrated biographical work on famous women. The book combines the stories of both the revered and the reviled women of renown, offering exempla of behaviours that should inspire the reader to lead a virtuous life. The present printed Boccaccio is an important witness to Renaissance Humanism north of the Alps as the first Latin edition of this text. The 'Master of the Ulm Boccaccio', one of the most important German illustrators of the incunabula period, was named after his work in the present book, also noteworthy as the first fully-illustrated book printed in Ulm. Almost all of the life stories are accompanied by a woodcut depiction, all full of vitality and humour
