Giustiniano / Iunti (Giunti) - Corpus Iuris Civilis (Opera Omnia) - 5 Complete Volumes - 1598 Splendid monumental folio edition printed in Venice by the Giunti, in contemporary full parchment bindings with calligraphed parchments. Rare and monumental complete edition in 5 folio volumes of the Corpus Iuris Civilis of Emperor Justinian, printed in Venice in 1598 (MDXCVIII) by the renowned Giunti workshop (Apud Iuntas). The work, a milestone of Western law, presents itself in its monumental and complete structure, enriched by the gigantic Glossa Ordinaria (Accursius, Contius, Cuiacius, Duarenus) laid out in two columns surrounding the elegant central text. The set includes all 5 expected tomes: Tomus Primus: Digestum Vetus seu Pandectarum Iuris Civilis Tomus Secundus: Infortiatum seu Pandectarum Iuris Civilis Tomus Tertius: Digestum Novum seu Pandectarum Iuris Civilis Tomus Quartus: Codicis Dn. Iustiniani Sacratissimi Principis Imperatoris Augusti (Libri IX Priores) Tomus Quintus: Volumen Legum (Tres Libros Codicis, Authenticas seu Novellas, Feudorum Consuetudines...) Typographic details of great value: Frontispiece generally inserted within a magnificent and rich architectural woodcut frame with the figures of Justinian, Tribonian, and Dorotheus. Bicolor: All the frontispieces of the individual tomes are printed in red and black and decorated with the famous Giunti logo (the Florentine lily). Numerous animated woodcut initials and embellishments in the text. Fascinating seven-hundred-note possession marks on the frontispieces (one dated 1715) and marginal glosses in ancient handwriting testifying to the historical use of the work. Binding: Full rigid contemporary parchment (late 16th century) with imposing nerves on the spines. The titles and emblems on the spines were carefully inked by hand in ancient times for the identification of the volumes. The edges of the leaves are finely sprayed in red and ochre. Condition: Lot in generally good condition considering the age (over 420 years of history). Crisp paper of excellent quality. Exterior: Solid bindings. Note a partial loss/breakage of the parchment on the lower cap of the spine of the volumes. Normal signs of time and dust. Interior: Interiors well preserved. Presence of water stains (historic and stabilized damp halos) confined mainly to the endpapers and flyleaves. Small and limited galleries of woodworm in the inner margins of some sections (e.g. Tomo V), which barely touch the text or column numbers without compromising legibility. Inside the work is attached the Certificate of Guarantee and authenticity issued by a renowned antique dealer in 2007.
