Lot Essay
PREVIOUSLY UNDESCRIBED FIRST ISSUE of a poem written in the 13th century 'd'une assez bonne latinité' (Brunet). This copy has several variants which mark it as a first issue. L6 verso (mounted on a stub) is in an uncorrected state with many small differences from the corrected state seen in other copies. More striking, L6 recto is blank without the Dürer woodcut (see note to next lot).
