[Classical antiquity] Solis, Virgil. Metamorphoses Ovidii

Ca. 1580. Precise ed. unknown; first publ. by G. Corvinus, S. Feyerabend and the heirs of W. Galli, Frankfurt, 1563. Contains 172 (of 178) woodcut ills. by Virgil Solis, all w. baroque frame and captions in Latin and German, hleather, obl. 8vo.

Poor copy, lacking title-p., most of preliminary lvs and final pages. Most of the genitals of the figures have been "censored" (scratched out). Spine broken, many p. loose, some p. waterst. at top. Still, many of the iconic and influential woodcuts in good condition.
