Subject: [Rarebooks] QUERY HELP pls re Boccaccio's Decameron Early edition

Friends and colleagues,
For this week's column I am writing about plagues and famines as represented in some examples of literature and art.
I am trying to find a place where I can get an image of the title page of one of the early iterations of The Decameron - preferably one illustrated by drawings by Boccaccio himself.
Any help will be appreciated.
Stay safe.
