BIANCHINI, Francesco (1662-1729). De Kalendario et Cyclo Caesaris ac de Paschali Canone S. Hippolyti Martyris Dissertationes duae ad SS. D. Nostrum Clementem XI. Pont. Max . Rome: Typis Aloysii & Francisci de Comitibus, 1703. 2° (267 x 192mm). Collation: *10 a-g6 h6 (h4 + ?2 2?2) i-o6 p4; +4 A-G6; §6; A-D8 E4 F8; §4. Pagination: Kalendario : [20] 1-92 [8] 93-176; De nummo et gnomone clementino : [8] 1-84; Solutio problematis paschalis : [1-]12; Dubium seu problema solvendum : [i-]Lxxxviii [5 engraved tables and 1 letterpress folding table]; Index rerum memorabilium : [8] [5 engraved tables and 1 letterpress folding table repeated]. First part with 6 engraved folding plates, one of which with partial contemporary hand-colouring, second part with 2 folding plates, the insertion following leaf h4 in part I consists of 2 bifolia, printed on one side only, containing letterpress tables, with each bifolium headlined 'Post pag. 92.', engraved medallions on title and in the text, and one printed on a small piece of paper and tipped in, 4 words printed onto overslip and pasted onto *7v. (Very small marginal holes to *9 and G1 due to paper flaws, short marginal nick to h2, occasional light insignificant staining mostly confined to margins.) Contemporary vellum (upper cover scored, perhaps from a natural flaw). Provenance : Bibliotheca Riccardi (booklabel). FIRST EDITION WITH FINE LARGE ENGRAVING OF THE MERIDIAN LINE installed in the basilica of Santa Maria degli Angeli (Rome) by commission of Pope Clement XI. The title vignette shows a medal struck to commemorate the pope's visit to the basilica to see the sun cross the almost completed meridian line on 6 October 1702, with this repeated on the second leaf of De nummo et gnomo Clementino . Since there is little agreement between different copies as to collation and make-up of plates, this book is sold not subject to return. Riccardi I, 131.
