Show moreBound in vellum with gold tooling by Leighton, Brewer St. W. Third incunabular edition of the principal work of Albumasar (d. 886), the Arabian mathematician and astronomer whose works exercised a profound influence upon the medieval world view in the occident. His "Flores" are probably extracted from "De magnis coniunctionibus" (cf. DSB I, 35, 1); according to Houzeau/Lancaster, no Arabic original text or manuscript is known. The woodcuts show allegories of the planets and the zodiac, illustrating this astrological florilegium. - First 3 ff. show a faint brownstain; otherwise only very insignificantly browned. A very clean, crisp copy in a beautifully restrained modern binding by Philippe Belz, who took over the Niedrée shop in 1860 and retired in 1880.
