Description

MASCARDI, Vitale - BENTIVOGLIO, Guido. Festa, fatta in Roma, alli 25 di Febbraio 1634. E data in luce da Vitale Mascardi. In Roma, 1635In 4to; mm. 243x172.<br
Legatura piena pergamena coeva; Pp 8, 135, 1. Frontespizio inciso e 12 incisioni a doppia pagina di cui due più volte ripiegate, incise da François Collignon su disegno di Andrea Sacchi.Rara prima edizione con la descrizione delle feste promosse dal cardinale Antonio Barberini, fratello del Papa Urbano VIII, in occasione della visita a Roma del principe Alessandro Carlo Vasa di Polonia durante il carnevale romano e con la relazione della famosa festa del Saracino. Opera ricercata per le belle incisioni eseguite da F. Collignon su disegni di Andrea Sacchi (1599-1661), noto pittore romano protetto dal Cardinale Barberini al quale è dedicato questo libro di feste. L'autore, il Cardinale Guido Bentivoglio (1577-1644), nunzio apostolico nelle Fiandre e poi in Francia, sottoscrisse come capo dell'Inquisizione la condanna contro Galileo. Consigliere di Urbano VIII, il Bentivoglio ne sarebbe stato forse il successore se non fosse morto durante il Conclave. Rossetti 2676. 10. Cicognara 1440; Maurizio Fagiolo, La Scenografia, Florence, 1973; Povoledo, E., Enciclopedia dello spettacolo, vol. VI, col. 68–70.

Condition

In 4to; mm. 243x172.<br
Contemporary full vellum binding. Pp 8, 135, 1. Engraved titlepage and 12 engravings on double page engraved by François Collignon on drawnings by Andrea Sacchi.
Rare first edition with the description of the feasts promoted by Cardinal Antonio Barberini, brother of Pope Urban VIII, on the occasion of the visit to Rome of Prince Alexander Carlo Vasa of Poland during the Roman carnival and with the report of the famous feast of Saracino. A sought work also for the beautiful engravings made by F. Collignon on drawings by Andrea Sacchi (1599-1661), a well-known Roman painter protected by Cardinal Barberini to whom this feast book is dedicated. The author, Cardinal Guido Bentivoglio (1577-1644), apostolic nuncio in Flanders and then in France, signed the sentence against Galileo as head of the Inquisition. Counselor of Urban VIII, Bentivoglio would perhaps have been his successor if he had not died during the Conclave.
