On first page of text a twenty-four line initial illuminated in gold and colors, with border ornament.  Book and chapter initials in alternate red and blue.  Arabic numerals, which made their first appearance in printed books in 1470, were very sparingly used even at a considerably later date than 1473.

The author, commonly known as Johannes de Gandavo (Ghent), of the early part of the 14th century, wrote commentaries also on other works of Aristotle.  Of the present work five editions, of which this is the first, were printed at Venice in the 15th century.

Franz Renner of Heilbronn conducted a press at Venice from 1471 to 1483, having as partner from 1473 to 1477 Nicolas of Frankfort.  The present volume is printed in a small round-faced gothic type, the second of the nine fonts which he used.
