AnmerkungGiovanni Battista Audiffredi, "Specimen historico-criticum editionum Italicarum saeculi XV", ex typographio Paleariniano, Rome 1783, p. 288: "Romae in bibliopolio Mich. Ang. Barbiellini: quod exemplum superioribus annis a Laerio comparatum fuisse pro Bibliotheca Brienniana audivi."
Many sources state that the copy was previously owned by de Marchis, but this is a mistake due to an incorrect interpretation of Audiffredi's "Specimen".
Anmerkung zur AusgestaltungFrom A. M. Hind, "Early Italian Engraving", p. 107: "Some impressions brown, others grey. No. 1 cut. Nos. 3-19 in second state. This copy has added interest from the addition of pen and ink drawings in fourteen of the empty spaces in the Paradiso (Cantos XV-XXIV, and XXX-XXXIII) as well as a decorative design on the blank page opposite the beginning of Canto I of the Inferno. The designs to the Paradiso are quite independent of Botticelli, and somewhat in the style of Piero di Cosimo."
