Bound in somewhat later full calf with a raised spine with gilt decoration, marbled endpapers, edges painted red ( French 17th c. binding). One corner of the binding with some small loss of leather, interior with at some pages minor worming ( not interfering with the legibility nor the engravings). In all still a very good copy. This Paris edition by the son in law of the Antwerp printer-publisher Christophe Plantin appeared 4 years after the first authorised Plantin edition ( 1594 - Imhoff L-17 ). The son in law ( Beys ) based this edition entirely on the Antwerp imprint. At the end he even reprints the ''Approbatio'' which is signed by Henricus Cuyckius, Dean of the University of Louvain and Royal book censor, dated in Louvain 12th december 1592. USTC N° 146628 ..

De Cruce libri tres ad sacram profanamque historiam utiles. Una cum notis.
Antverpiae, Ex Officina Plantiniana, apud Viduam et J. Moretum, 1594. In-4 de (16)-120-(8) pp., vélin de l'époque sous étui moderne.
Second tirage de l’édition originale plantinienne, publié à Anvers par la veuve de Christophe Plantin (Jeanne Rivière) et son gendre Jean Moretus. Ce tirage se distingue de l'émission datée 1593 par l'adjonction d'un « I » supplémentaire à la fin du millésime en chiffres romains au bas du titre (MDXCIV au lieu de MDXCIII) ainsi que par d’importantes retouches et corrections apportées sur le cuivre de plusieurs gravures, d'après la bibliographie de Ferdinand van der Haeghen.Composé par l'humaniste et philologue flamand Juste Lipse (1547-1606) pour marquer publiquement son allégeance à la foi catholique, ce traité érudit constitue la première étude archéologique et historique exhaustive consacrée au supplice de la croix dans l'Antiquité romaine et barbare. Divisé en trois livres, l’ouvrage analyse avec précision la morphologie des instruments de torture (comme la furca servant à châtier les esclaves), les différentes méthodes de crucifixion (tête en bas, membres écartés), la nature des bois utilisés et la topographie des lieux d'exécution, avant de s'achever sur les honneurs rendus au signe de la croix sous l'empereur Constantin.L'illustration, d'une grande force dramatique, comprend une vignette de titre (la marque plantinienne au compas) et 22 gravures sur cuivre insérées dans le texte, dont une à pleine page (p. 67), gravées par le maître anversois Pieter Van der Borcht. Les notes de Lipse fournissent un témoignage précieux sur la République des Lettres en mentionnant ses collaborateurs directs pour cet ouvrage, tels que l'érudit Martin Delrio, l'imprimeur François Raphelengien ou le chanoine Denis de Villers. Ex-libris armorié du marquisat de Verthamon contrecollé sur un ex-libris gravé (Olivier-Hermal-Roton, planche 1817-1818). Ex-libris manuscrit sur la garde supérieure « J.O. 1811 », ex-dono manuscrit Marguerite Valon 1944 sur le contreplat supérieur.Vélin légèrement fripé et bruni, feuillets légèrement roussis. Coupe latérale du plat supérieur légèrement accidentée.Van der Haeghen, Bibliographie lipsienne, I, 187 ; Brunet, Supplément, I, 872 pour le premier tirage.
