Together with Dante's Vita Nuova, translated by D. G. Rossetti. Only 100 copies printed, at the expense of John Ruskin. Accompanying this very scarce volume is an engraving of a drawing by Rossetti which was intended to be a frontispiece to this work. It was never published. Curator's note: The engraving has been moved to shelfmark Victorian 820 A1a no.24
