Biblia polyglotta, Alcala de Henares: in Complutensi universitate, industria Arnaldi Gulielmi de Brocario, 1514-1517 [i.e., 1520 or 1521].

Description

This copy of the great Complutensian polyglot Bible (in Hebrew, Greek, Aramaic, and Latin), edited by Cardinal Ximenes, is shown closed to display the ownership brands on the fore- and top-edges of the text block. This particularly Mexican form of indicating ownership indicates that the six-volume set once belonged to the library of the Convento de San Agustin in Puebla de Los Angeles, Mexico.

Identifier
