First illustrated edition of Petrarch's Sonetti et canzoni and I Trionfi to appear with a biography of the author and the extensive commentary of humanist Giovanni Andrea Gesualdo.

Fowler notes that this edition does not incorporate Gesualdo's dedication the index to the commentary or the giunta but it does contain a letter to Bernardo Priuli from Giglio; in our copy I Trionfi has been bound before the rest of the text contrary to the directions of the register.
