P. Papinii Statii opera.
Leiden: Jacobi Carteron, [n.d.] (ca. 1667). 12mo. 356, [1] pp. With engraved title; decorated initials. Contemporary limp vellum, spine and back cover torn, with a small hole to front cover.

Perhaps otherwise unexampled publication of the widow of Jacques Carteron. Two other books associated with her firm give an approximate date to the Statius. These belong respectively to 1666 (A. Pliny's Quaestiones agitatae inter Thomistas et Molinistas) and 1668 (Ovid's Metamorphoses).
