La Bandiera

Book 1638 Italian Italy

Francesco Ferdinando Alfieri

Created from the Wiktenauer Books staging import for likely-missing mid-seventeenth-century works. Source row 55.

Quality phase 656: work 328 consolidated into this canonical work. Same Alfieri work; 1628 is preserved only as a historical bibliographic error. Former title: La Bandiera. Obl. Former author statement: Francesco Ferdinando Alfieri. Former description: ALFIERI (FRANCESCO FERDINANDO) [Maestro d'arme dell' illustrissima accademia Delia in Padova]. La Bandiera. Obl. 4°. 1628. Padova: presso S. Sardi. [Numerous copperplates.] Former historical notes: Flag treatise by Francesco Ferdinando Alfieri, printed at Padua in 1628.

Treccani and an institutional collection catalogue identify Padua 1638 as the first documented edition. The old 1628 report is retained in transferred bibliography and notes but is not modelled as a separate manifestation.

Primary edition created from Wiktenauer Books batch 8 on 2026-07-17.

Quality phase 256: institutional collection catalogue confirms Padova, Sebastiano Sardi, 1638, [12] + 63 pages, oblong quarto, 15 × 21 cm, two engraved portraits and 28 full-page engravings.

Cover/title-page image retrieved from the linked Wiktenauer page in phase 640. The title page or frontispiece was individually checked against this 1638 edition; file 'La Bandiera (Alfieri) 1.png', 800×578 pixels.

Quality phase 656: edition 329 consolidated here. The alleged 1628 Alfieri issue is an unverified bibliographic ghost of the documented Padua 1638 manifestation. Former fields: title=La Bandiera. Obl; year=1628; city_id=65; publisher_id=136; printer_id=null; format=4°; pages=null. Former notes: Primary source confirmation: Gelli, Bibliografia della scherma, p. 51, lists La bandiera at Padova, 1628, presso Sebastiano Sardi.

Quality phase 458: retained the Padua 1628 Sardi manifestation while recording the source’s numerous copperplates; date remains bibliographically reported rather than copy-verified.
