The Venetian Printing Press is a historical study based on previously unpublished documents, written by Horatio Forbes Brown in 1891. The book explores the history of printing in Venice, Italy, during the 15th and 16th centuries, when the city was at the forefront of the printing industry. Brown provides a detailed account of the development of printing in Venice, including the establishment of the first printing press in the city in 1469 by Johannes de Spira. He also examines the role of the Venetian government in regulating the printing industry, as well as the impact of printing on the economy and society of Venice.The book includes numerous illustrations and examples of early Venetian printing, as well as a bibliography of sources used in the research. It is a valuable resource for scholars and historians interested in the history of printing and the cultural and economic history of Venice.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
