This copy has fascinating provenance, as it holds the bookplate of William Stirling of Keir House. It is possible that this is either the bookplate of Sir William Stirling Maxwell or the architect William Stirling II. Sir William Stirling Maxwell was a Scottish historical writer and art historian. The family motto is to the bookplate. This work is an extensive commentary on the Laws of Toro, or the Leyes de Toro, in Spanish and Latin. Toro's Laws were formed after the death of Queen Isabel during the meeting of the Cortes in Toro. 83 laws were enacted in order to govern and preserve marriage and inheritance. They also modernised legal procedure and practice which had not been altered since the thirteenth century. Gomez examines all eighty-three laws to this work. He served as arch-priest of Toledo, which was regarded as the richest diocese in Christendom. In addition to this, he studied and taught law at the University of Salamanca. This commentary of the Leyes de Toro was first published in 1555 and quickly became the most important source for that area of law in Spain. Collated, complete. This tome has an irregular pagination, but the signatures and catch-words are accurate. A very scarce work, which is in a particularly well preserved condition. CONDITION In a full vellum binding. Externally, generally smart. Vellum is discoloured slightly, with a few marks as expected. Bookplate to the front pastedown. Front hinge is strained but firm. Internally, firmly bound. Pages are unusually bright, with just the occasional spot and handling mark.
