VENETUS (PAULUS)
Footnotes
First edition of this important commentary on Aristotle's "Posterior Analytics" by the leading logician of the Middle Ages, Paul of Venice (1368-1428), an Augustinian hermit and the period's foremost authority on Aristotle.
A curious and attractive volume. The illumination comprises a large initial 'N' on first leaf of text (a2), enclosing a charming gouache of an Aristotelian scribe in a red toga at a wooden desk, and with floral border extensions of acanthus leaves, tulips and daisies in red, blue, green and white; central floral border to the double column text throughout; and a 6-line initial 'Q' on a gold background on q1 at the start of the second part.
