‎A very attractive copy of Heyne's noted and renowned editon of Virgilius in the illustrated version. ""Édition regardée comme un de chefs-d'oeuvre de la critique classique, et qui, chose remarquable dans un livre imprimé à Leipzig à cette époque-la, se distingue par sa belle exécution typographique, ainsi par les 204 jolies vignettes dont elle est décore."" (Brunet V, 1295).‎
