Paris: Calmann-Lévy, [1913]. - In-18, dark blue morocco, motto "Per non dormire" on a gilt background and within a gilt wreath of laurels in the centre of the first plate, small gilt labyrinth in the centre of the second plate, spine ribbed, gilt fillets inside, gilt head, untrimmed (J. Kauffmann - E. Horclois) First edition of the French translation of this tragedy inspired by the fifth song of Dante's "Inferno". PRECIOUS EXAMPLE OF THE DANCER, CHOREOGRAPHER AND ACTOR IDA RUBINSTEIN (1885-1960), who acted in several plays by D'Annunzio, enriched with this letter on the false title: "to Ida Rubinstein // who was Saint Sebastian, // who is the Pisanella, // who will perhaps be // Francesca. // Gabriele d'Annunzio" . Spine faded, discreet wetness on the second plate and the spine, some rubbing from use.
