Agrippa, Camillo. Treatise on the Art of Arms, Rome, 1553, Study copy of the first edition An interesting copy—though unfortunately not without flaws—of Camillo Agrippa’s *Treatise on the Art of Arms*, printed in Rome by Antonio Blado in 1553. An engineer, architect, and mathematician—as well as a fencer—Agrippa was the first to systematically apply Euclidean geometry to the study of fencing, analyzing the body’s movements in space and time. The work enjoyed widespread success and became a standard reference for European fencing treatises. The illustrations are remarkable, featuring magnificent plates attributed to Jan van der Straet and, in the past, even to Michelangelo and Leonardo. A working copy of the first edition
