Cesare Campana (1540-1606), Italian professor and historian, born in L'Aquila, focused mainly on the history of the Netherlands and Flanders. The work reports the siege that led to the capitulation of Antwerp (between July 1584 and August 1585, episode of the 80 Years' War), before the Spanish forces commanded by Alessandro Farnese (1545-1592), Duke of Parma and Placencia, husband of the Infanta D. Maria de Portugal, daughter of the Infante D. Duarte and granddaughter of D. Manuel I. Includes a large fold-out xilography, representing the siege, and two equally fold-out sheets: the first with the family tree of the counts of Flanders; the second, the tree of the principal lords of the Netherlands. Copy with several stamps from Casa de Cadaval, namely on the free end paper, on the title page, on the engraving and on the fold-out pages; unreadable old ownership, in the bottom margin of the title page. Otherwise, a very clean copy, with the engraving and the pages well folded. Good contemporary binding, full flexible parchment, with two glued labels and missing ties. Palau, 41128.
