Prima edizione della descrizione dello straordinario gabinetto di curiosità o Wunderkammer raccolto dal bolognese Ferdinando Cospi (1606-1686). Già nel 1667 Cospi aveva commissionato un breve catalogo della sua collezione, dato alle stampe con il titolo di Breve descrizione del Museo Cospiano. In occasione, dieci anni dopo, della donazione della collezione al Senato di Bologna, incaricò Lorenzo Legati di redigerne un più ampio e dettagliato inventario. Il Museo Cospiano del 1677 è diviso in cinque libri, di cui i primi due contengono l'inventario dei naturalia - tra cui fossili animali e vegetali, coralli e conchiglie - mentre i successivi tre sono dedicati alla descrizione degli artificialia, con un lungo elenco di monete, medaglie, sculture, bronzetti, vasi, mummie e altri reperti archeologici. Il volume è arricchito da una incisione realizzata dall'artista bolognese Giuseppe Maria Mitelli (1634-1718), che presenta l'ambiente del museo, con gli oggetti descritti nell'inventario esposti su una scaffalatura che si estende su tre lati della sala, sormontata dall'iscrizione 'Erudita haec artis et naturae machinamenta ad excitandam antiquitatis memoriam Ferdinandus Eq. Bayul. Arretii Mar. Petrioli Senatorq. de Cospis superandae dicavit immortalitati'. La collezione subì nel tempo dispersioni; nel 1743 fu trasferita presso l'Istituto delle Scienze, e nel 1871 entrò a far parte del Museo civico archeologico di BolognaFolio (307x204 mm).

Already in 1667 Cospi had commissioned a brief catalogue of his private collection, printed under the title Breve descrizione del Museo Cospiano. In 1677 he decided to donate his museum to the Senate of Bologna, and on the occasion commissioned to Lorenzo Legati a complete and detailed inventory. The Museo Cospiano of 1677 is divided in five Books, the first two of which contains the list of naturalia - among others, animal and vegetable fossils, corals, and shells. The subsequent three Books describe the artificialia, such as coins, sculptures, bronze statuettes, vases, mummies, and other relics. The volume includes a fine plate engraved by the Bolognese artist Giuseppe Maria Mitelli (1634-1718), depicting the museum with a large three-side shelving housing the objects described in the publication, and surmounted by the inscription 'Erudita haec artis et naturae machinamenta ad excitandam antiquitatis memoriam Ferdinandus Eq.
