Protolume chimico e cheggiante di condupplicati paraphrasi (1682) by Giovanni Francesco Aggravi.
This book is part of our Neville Collection which was purchased from Roy G. Neville. This is a first edition Venetian copy, 12mo. 6 leaves, and woodcut printer’s ornament on the title page. It is bound in contemporary vellum with old ink lettering on spine.
Nothing seems to be known of the author, Giovanni Francesco Aggravi (if you know information that might help, let us know! He’s most likely from the 17th century). The first half of this book covers chemical apparatus, operations, and process, with the second half focusing on an alphabetical list of preparations of chemicals, mainly for pharmaceutical uses.
