Codex statutorum Alexandriae

Codex statutorum Alexandriae, Alessandria, 1547

It is the "statuta sive capitula, et ordinamenta facta et approbata, et correcta (....) et exemplata tempore nobilis viri domini Muriali de Vidalta honorabilis potestatis civitatis Alexandrie" (p. I) issued  in 1297. The Moscheni brothers, publishers «ex privilegio habito ab ipsa republica» (p. CCCCXV), failing to read parts of the manuscript, have left gaps in the printed text. A wonderful view of Alexandria lays within a decorative wood frame.
