Dedication leaf to "Alle molto [Re]everende et Deuote Sig[no]re Le Reverende Madri di S. Giulia di Brescia" with text below in a cursive hand (with text & decoration rubbed away & with some pigment transfer to facing page). Full-page miniature depicting kneeling patron or dedicatee, being bleswsed by an angel, with Latin motto above, 4 2-line initials, one in gold, the rest red, one leaf of music. Apparently incomplete, leaves rubbed with slight losses, some worming. Bound in modern leather gilt. Provenance: Conte Paolo Vimercati-Sozzi (1801-1883), Italian antiquary (engraved bookplate).
Vimercati-Sozzi donated a large portion of his library, including books and manuscripts, to the city of Bergamo in 1869; they are presently housed in the Biblioteca Civica. The remainder of his collection was sold at auction in Milan in 1893.
