Work of the secretary of the Princes of Savoy, made in the name of the Marquis d'Este. Turin, For Gio. Domenico Tarino. & Nbsp; Contemporary soft parchment, chiseled title on the tail flap, the author's general dedicatory Epistle to Vittorio Amedeo, prince of Piedmont dated from Briga [Alta], 15 December 1607. Paolo Filippi dalla Briga, poet and secretary at the court of the Dukes of Savoy in Turin, deals with the the art of writing letters and choosing "compliments".
