The collection of incunabula in the National Library of the Czech Republic contains a previously unknown print published by the Naples printer Sixtus Riessinger at the end of 1470 or, more likely, in 1471. The four-folio Lamentatio Nigropontis complements the collection of 16 hitherto known prints that directly responded to the conquest of the island of Negroponte (Euboea), a colony of the Republic of Venice, by the Ottoman army of Sultan Mehmed II in 1470. The article contextualises the circumstances of the publication of one of the first prints of Naples.
