William Hamilton, Campi Phlegraei. Observations on the Volcanos of the Two Sicilies

Napoli, [Pietro Fabris], 1776. Prima edizione completa in 2 volumi contenente un volume dedicato alle tavole e un commento testuale. L'opera, di straordinaria rilevanza scientifica e culturale, si distingue non solo per l'accuratezza delle osservazioni di Hamilton sui vulcani dell'Italia meridionale, ma anche per la ricchezza iconografica, con 54 tavole a piena pagina incise e colorate a mano dell'artista Pietro Fabris.

Le tavole illustrano fenomeni vulcanici, sezioni geologiche e panorami del Golfo di Napoli, conferendo all'opera un notevole respiro estetico e scientifico. I volumi presentano una legatura in marocchino verde di pregio, con decorazioni dorate sui piatti e sul dorso. L'opera è accompagnata da un Supplemento pubblicato nel 1779, comprendente 5 ulteriori tavole in coloritura d'epoca.

Le condizioni generali sono buone, con lievi segni di arrossamento e qualche difetto marginale. L’importanza storica di 'Campi Phlegraei' non è solo quella di un’opera illustrata, ma rappresenta anche un capolavoro nel campo della geofisica e della vulcanologia, lasciando un'impronta indelebile nell'immaginario culturale europeo.
