‎(Frankfurt), Johann Ammonius, 1624.‎

Reference : 18500


‎ Première édition. Rare. Ce beau livre d'emblèmes comprend un titre gravé et 100 gravures de Matthaüs Mérian. Ce graveur suisse avait été l'élève de Jacques Callot et épousa la fille de Theodor de Bry. Chaque emblème est accompagné d'un quatrain en français. Le texte de Julius Wilhelm Zincgref (1591-1635) se trouve en regard. Sa préface traite de l'origine et de l'usage des emblèmes. Provenances : Christophe Finance (signature contemporaine sur le titre). Cette édition est strictement identique à la première de 1619. Pour une raison obscure une plume a anciennement ajouté un X à la date, mais il s'agit bien de l'édition de 1624. Papier un peu bruni, très fin travail de vers dans la marge sur une quinzaine de feuillets en début d'ouvrage et une dizaine vers la fin, mais très bon exemplaire, frais. /// In-4 de (8), 100, (2) ff. [A-Z4, Aa-Bb4, Cc2] Vélin. (Reliure de l'époque.) //// First edition. Rare. This beautiful book of emblems includes an engraved title page and 100 engravings by Matthaüs Mérian. This Swiss engraver was a pupil of Jacques Callot and married the daughter of Theodor de Bry. Each emblem is accompanied by a quatrain in French. The text by Julius Wilhelm Zincgref (1591-1635) faces the illustrations. His preface discusses the origin and use of emblems. Provenance: Christophe Finance (contemporary signature on the title page). This edition is identical to the first edition of 1619. For some unknown reason, a pen has added an X to the date, but this is indeed the 1624 edition. The paper is slightly browned, with very fine worm damage in the margin on about fifteen pages at the beginning of the book and about ten towards the end, but it is a very good copy, fresh.
