Note

First series--illustrations: Il libro del monte sancto di Dio, 1477 [from designs by Botticelli, and generally regarded as having been engraved by him]; La Divina commedia of Dante, 1481 [from designs by Botticelli possibly engraved by Baccio Baldini]; and The triumphs of Petrarch [erroneously attributed by Bartsch to Nicoletto da Modena, but more likely designed if not executed by Fra Filippo Lippi]
"With letterpress descriptions of the works illustrated, and copious extracts from the text of the poems. First series--Illustrations: Il libro del Monte Sancto di Dio, 1477; La divina commedia of Dante, 1481; and The triumphs of Petrarch."
