Italian calligraphic manuscript, written likely in northern Italy, circa 1830. 

This is a magnificent calligraphic item; the work of an expert calligrapher and scribe. The purpose of the manuscript was apparently a written presentation of the newest literature, poems, sonnets, and similar works into an aesthetic and calligraphic presentation. 

93 ls; joints loose; some wear.
