Florence G. Barbèra 1900 viii, 308pp. A miniature anthology of Italian verse, bound in full vellum over boards with intricate gilt tooling. Includes a colorful, vertical fore-edge painting of three women, perhaps poetic muses, standing beneath an orange tree while Cupid floats overhead with his bow drawn. Bookplate of famed miniature book collector James D. Henderson. Faint, even spotting along outer margin, else fine. A.e.g. (2 11/16 by 2; 71x50mm). (Fore-edge Painting).
