Printed in Paris or actually 100km away at the bookseller, publisher and printer (so the permission indicates) Charles Perier in the village of Beauvais under the name of Bellerofont.

As we remember Bellerophont , in Greek mythology, Bellerophont was a hero, a Corinthian king; the hero of Homer's Iliad. He was believed to be the son of Poseidon and Eurynome and managed to tame Pegasus and with his help kill Chimera. Sent to war with the Amazons, he returned from it in triumph.

Bound in half parchment covered with Dominoté paper. Volume after conservation repairs.

A very interesting item.
