Hello, can you please help me? I am translating a book on mosaics and micromosaics...
Provenzale “fu (...) inventore di varie sorti di smalti, la cognizione de’ quali non fu mai appo gli antichi, fra’ quali quel bellissimo smalto rosso in corpo, che è cosa meravigliosa, e d’ogni sorta di color di carne bellissimo smalto rosso in corpo, che è cosa meravigliosa, e d’ogni sorta di color di carne bellissimi
.
Provenzale “was [...] inventor of various types of enamels, the knowledge of which was never learned???? by the ancients, among which that most beautiful enamel red in body???? which is something marvellous, and every sort of beautiful skin tint.
I am having problems translating two words "appo" - is it an abbreviation for appreso?? and also the color of the mosaic enamels: rosso in corpo
