LONDON, UNITED KINGDOM - JUNE 26, 2025: An art handler holds ''Cecco di Ronchitti da Bruzene. Dialogo in perpuosito de la stella nuova'' (Padua, 1605), an exceptionally rare first edition of Galileo's first published work, co-authored with Girolamo Spinelli and written in vernacular dialect to challenge Aristotelian cosmology through a witty dialogue sparked by the 1604 supernova; no other copy recorded on the market in over a century, estimate: GBP500,000 - 700,000 during a photocall at Christie's auction house ahead of Valuable Books and Manuscripts Sale in London, United Kingdom on June 26, 2025.
