Publii Virgilii Maronis. Bucolica, Georgica, et Aeneis

Birmingham: Johannis Baskerville, 1766. 8vo, pp. [2], 388; engraved frontispiece; contemporary red straight-grain paneled morocco, gilt-lettered direct on smooth gilt-decorated spine, interlocking gilt border on covers, a.e.g.; pages foxed, a little wear at the extremities, but in all a nice copy with a painting on the fore-edge of a country manor house atop a knoll, surrounded with trees; the painting seems a trifle faded, but it is likely 19th century, possibly done at the time this book was given as a prize to William Semicot Brickwell, Trinity College, Oxford, 1818. With a later engraved bookplate of R. Nash Brickwell. Gaskell 34. (Inventory #: 32438)
