Camillo Palladini's manuscript for his discourse on fencing is
housed in the De Walden Library at the Wallace Collection in
London. Previously unpublished and largely unknown, it is of
central importance to a modern understanding of Italian rapier play
in the sixteenth century. This stunning book, a joint endeavour
between the Royal Armouries and the Wallace Collection, reproduces
the forty-six red chalk illustrations in the manuscript--only three
of which have ever been seen in print--together with a
transcription and translation of the original Italian text. Perfect
for students of fencing, lovers of Italian art, sixteenth-century
researchers, and historical reenactors and interpreters, The Art of
Fencing: The Forgotten Discourse of Camillo Palladini showcases a
striking example of Renaissance swordsmanship.
