Mikraot Gedolot - Venice, 1568 - Large Format
Mikraot Gedolot, Ketuvim [Includes Tehillim, Mishlei, Job, Ruth, Eicha, Kohelet, Esther, Daniel, Ezra, Nechemya, and Chronicles], with the Targum and Rashi, Ralbag, Ibn Ezra, Radak, R. Saadia Gaon and the Mesorah commentaries. Venice: Giovanni (Zuan) Di Gara, 1568.
Elaborate edition of the Mikraot Gedolot in an impressive large format printed by Giovanni (Zuan) Di Gara in his first years as a printer in Venice. Di Gara inherited his printing press from the celebrated Venetian printer Daniel Bomberg.
The first word in each of the books is surrounded by a large and impressive frame typical of the patterns of Venice [in the Book of Psalms, which is the first in the volume, the frame is larger].
