Vccelliera
ovvero discorso della natura e proprietà di diversi uccelli (1622)

Splendidly illustrated with plates by Tempesta, Villamena and Leonardi, this facsimile of the «Uccelliera» (Rome, Andrea Fei 1622) is accompanied with a profound study of the rare and precious ornithological repertory created by the erudite and art lover Cassiano dal Pozzo. Signed by his house master G.P. Olina and destined to the naturalistic research of the Accademia dei Lincei, primary European scientific institution, this is Cassiano Dal Pozzo’s first editorial work.
