RÈ, Marco Antonio dal (1697-1784). Ville di delizia o siano palaggi camparecci nello Stato di Milano divise. ... Maisons de Plaisance ou Palais de Campagne de l'Etat de Milan . Milan: dal Rè, [ca 1737]. Broadsheets (450 x 600mm). Engraved throughout. Title, text and plate captions in Italian and French, portrait of Prince Eugene of Savoie, emblematic plate, 2-leaf dedication, Al lettore leaf, 8 leaves of descriptive text and 71 engraved plates, plans and views, 20 folding. (Most leaves with vertical crease of old central fold and small repaired tears; 20 plates, including most of the folding plates, with repairs or tears affecting the image area, three plates with margins shaved into plate area.) Modern half vellum. A RARE BOOK OF VIEWS OF THE BUILDINGS AND GARDENS OF THE EIGHT FINEST VILLAS OUTSIDE MILAN: the Borromeo villa on Isola da Bella (5 plates), villa di Belgioioso (20 plates including one of a statue dated 1737), villa di Brignano (11 plates), villa di Merate (10 plates), villa detta la Simonetta (4 plates), villa di Robecco (7 plates), villa d'Oreno (8 plates), villa di Cinisello (6 plates). The plates include at least one large bird's-eye-view (up to 67 x 127cm on six joined sheets) of each of the villas. Although the title-page calls for six tomi , the book is apparently complete. Brunet records the present work as one volume, and notes that the later Milan edition of 1743 was bound in two volumes with 92 plates. Brunet II, 474.
