12mo. Engraved medallion portrait on title. 539, [1] pp., lacking final leaf with De Tournes' trademark mottos. Later full sheep, blind-ruled to a panel design; binding rubbed, paper repair to title just touching portrait, light toning and finger-soiling throughout, a few leaves proud with edgewear. The first regularly published French edition of Dante's Divine Comedy (following the Aldine forgery of 1502-3), printed by Jean de Tournes and set in an italic typeface by Robert Granjon.
