II, 503 (for the chapter about wine). Rare first Italian translation of two popular medical treatises, both with larger chapters on food and drink. The first, on the preservation of health is by the professor of medicine Georg Pictorius from Villingen (c.1500- 1569; german name: Georg Maler) who practised as a physician in Ensisheim (Alsace). His dialogues between Teofrasto and Polilogo were first published the previous year in Latin (Tuendae sanitatis ratio; Basel 1549). They contain discussions about the importance of food with details about several kinds of meat, wine, vegetables etc. They also consider sleep, exercise, vacations etc. - The second part on the preservation of youth and retarding old age is by the famous Catalan 13th century physician and religious reformer Arnaldus de Vilanova (c.1240-1311). It again contains chapters about bread, wine, meat, fish etc. - The translator is a so-called Pamphilo Fiorembene who added a dedication to Mavlise Grimani. - Title-page with an old ownership inscription by a Gio. Antonio Ferrer dated 1563. Later (18th. cent.) inscriptions on the endpapers by Michele Angelo Ferrero and Domenico Cardino. On the title a Joseph Rubeus has then crossed out the first owner and put his name. Last endpaper with calculations in ink. Minor browning, only few leaves at the beginning and end with some light marginal staining, else mostly clean and fine.
