Soft cover. Condizione: Fine. 4to (33.5 cm), ca. 80 pp. Laminated wrappers (minor shelf wear). Price list loosely inserted. A joint private exhibition catalogue issued by Dr. Jörn Günther, Antiquariat (Hamburg) and Bruce P. Ferrini (Akron), two leading figures in the international trade of illuminated manuscripts and early printed books. The catalogue presents 39 items ranging from the early Middle Ages to the nineteenth century, comprising illuminated manuscripts on vellum, isolated miniature leaves, and early printed books. Each entry is described in detailed bibliographical and art-historical terms, with particular attention to illumination, provenance, codicological structure, and the history of collection and dispersal. The manuscript section includes a wide chronological and geographical range of works from major European centres of production. Among the highlights are a Spanish Evangeliary of the late eleventh century; a thirteenth-century copy of Petrus Comestor's Historia scholastica from southern Germany; a Parisian Breviary associated with the Congregation of St. Mathurin; a Florentine manuscript of Jean Vignay's Les épîtres et les Évangiles de tout l'an; a richly illuminated copy of Jerome's Epistolae from Florence; and a papal prophetic manuscript of the Vaticinia Pontificum. A particularly important highlight is the Livre de la chasse of Gaston Phébus, one of the most desirable secular manuscripts of the late medieval aristocratic tradition, offered as a joint top lot of the sale. The section of single leaves includes historiated initials attributed to Niccolò da Bologna and other Italian workshops, as well as isolated miniatures from high-quality liturgical manuscripts. These fragments illustrate both the dispersal of medieval codices and the modern market for manuscript leaves as collectible art objects. The early printed books section includes major incunabula and early vernacular editions, most notably a copy of the Gutenberg Bible (the so-called "Rendsburg copy") and a Nuremberg German Bible printed by Sensenschmidt and Frisner in the 1470s. A high-level private exhibition catalogue of considerable significance, documenting the convergence of scholarship, connoisseurship, and the international manuscript trade at the end of the twentieth century, and reflecting the shared expertise of two of the most influential dealers in the field.
