Description:
Manuscript inscription above colophon on leaf: "Signatus in inuentario 1536". Possibly from the Dominican monastery of Santi Stefano e Domenico in Bergamo, as this handwritten note is present in many of its incunabula. The monastery was abandoned in 1561 due to the extension of Bergamo's city walls.
