6.  Andrea Alciati, Emblemata

More than 175 editions of Alciato's Emblemata are known to be extant, ranging from a heavily annotated edition of the 16th century to a 18th-century 16mo edition printed on coarse paper. The number of emblems rose from the original 98 to 212 by the end of the seventeenth century. This edition of 1626 is a parallel edition of Latin and Italian, translated by P.E. Cadamosto of Vicenza [1] [2]. The illustrations are basically same as those in the 1584 Paris edition (no.5).
