Figure 31
Part of a page of Horace: Miscomini, Florence
From a copy in Harvard College Library (facsimile), Opera (scan)
1482
A page like Miscomini’s Florentine Horace of 1482, where notes surround the text, is an admirably practical piece of work. The notes are perhaps a little closely set, but the page is fine and straightforward, and of a pleasant solidity which gives the reader confidence.
