Sehr schönes Exemplar. Die Illustratoren Clark und Harper waren von der 1888 in London gegründeten "Scripture Gift Mission" mit dem Auftrag nach Palästina geschickt worden Zeichnungen von Land und Leuten anzufertigen, die für ihre Bibelausgabe verwendet werden sollten. Die Illustrationen zeigen also nicht die klassischen Illustrationen zur Bibel, sondern zeitgenössische Ansichten und Alltagszenen aus der Region. Da beispielsweise im Neuen Testament keine Darstellung von Jesus enthalten war, stießen die Illustrationen in Großbritannien anfänglich auch auf Kritik.- Vereinzelt minimal stockfleckig, S. 225/226 durch eine Verklebung im oberen, weißen Rand beschädigt, sonst sehr gut erhalten.…

Hardcover. Condition: Very good-. Four volumes, small quarto (19.7 by 14.8 cm.). Captions in Latin (biblical book and chapter) and German (biblical book, chapter, and verse(s) with quote). Copperplate engravings throughout: [1, title], [175, plates]; [1, title], [225, plates]; [1, title], [288, plates]; [148, plates]. Total = 836 unnumbered plates, 3 engraved title pages. Uniformly bound in contemporary sheep with ruled borders; spines with raised bands, blindstamped ornaments, and letterpress titles on heavy paper labels. Lacks fourth volume title page. Covers rubbed/lightly worn at extremities; slight loss to labels; light, almost exclusively marginal, foxing throughout all volumes; dampstains in first volume (affecting first seven plates, and top margin through first third of the volume), else a very good copy, with clean plates. Second printing of this pictorial Bible (Bilderbibel), published by the engraver and art dealer, Christoph Weigel (1654-1725). The grand biblical story, from the Seven Days of Creation to the Vision of a New Jerusalem, here unfolds in 836 beautifully engraved plates. The designs were chiefly drawn by Johann Jacob von Sandrart (1655-1698) and Georg Christoph Eimmart the Younger (1638-1705). The engravings were made by Elias Christian Heiss, J. U. Kraus, L. Heckenauer and Weigel, himself, among others. Weigel had earlier collaborated with J. J. von Sandrart on the Passio Domini Nostri Iesu Christi, Neo-coelatis Iconibus Expressa (Augsburg, 1693), a pictorial Gospel harmony depicted in 100 engraved plates. Christoph Weigel first trained as a goldsmith, and later apprenticed to his cousin Erhart Weigel, a famous instrument maker in Jena. He journeyed to Augsburg in 1693, where he learned the art of engraving from Andreas Wolfgang and later from Matthäus Küsel. His published works tended to serve didactic and edification purposes, including illustrated chronicles, and a compendium of notable political events of the early eighteenth century. Among his notable cartographic works is the Descriptio orbis antiqui in XLIV tabulis exhibita (A Description of the Ancient World in 44 Maps - Nürnberg, 1720). The Biblia Ectypa was first published in a large folio format at Augsburg in 1695, with four engraved plates appearing on each leaf. In 1697, the plates were re-issued at Regensburg in two formats: a smaller oblong folio with two plates per leaf, and a quarto with a single plate per leaf. Wildly successful, the Biblia Ectypa enabled Weigel to establish his own print publishing company in Nürnberg where he was soon joined by his younger brother Johann Christoph Weigel and worked closely with the prominent map publisher, Johann Baptist Homann. Annotations: Plates numbered by hand in black ink at top corner (though sometimes slightly out of order, with occasional corrrections, in the first two volumes). An old German hand has noted a correct count for each volume at the rear endleaf (e.g., Enthält 288 Küpfern). A notably complete set of this uncommon edition, lacking only the fourth title page. The total count of 836 engraved illustrations is confirmed via the online catalogue Das Verzeichnis der im deutschen Sprachraum erschienenen Drucke des 17. Jahrhunderts (VD17).

Hardcover. Condition: Very good. First edition. Oblong folio (leaves: 20.6 by 31.2 cm; plates: 10 to 11.5 by 14.5 to 15.5 cm). Engraved titlepage borders without letterpress; 231 (of 233) engraved plates printed on the rectos with no printed text, depicting biblical scenes from the Old and New Testaments (lacks Gen. XIX: Lot and his daughters after the destruction of Sodom and Gomorrah; Exod. VIII & IX: The plague of frogs). Recent marbled calf (lightly rubbed at extremities), bordered in blind; gilt-tooled spine with raised bands, gilt lettering pieces. Occasional light stains and smudges (especially at the outermost leaves, and almost entirely restricted to the blank margins); old, mostly marginal repairs and reinforcement of tears to about 30 leaves (Matt. IV plate with loss of about 10 words of manuscript text). Protected by wide margins, the plates are clean, fresh and bright, with relatively few minor blemishes. Housed and protected in a custom luxurious modern leather clamshell box. Rare suite of biblical illustrations printed before letter, perhaps as proofs, comprising 231 (of 233) engraved plates from the Icones Biblicae of Matthaeus Merian, the elder (1593-1650). The engravings are printed on large paper and lack any printed text. They are preceded by a leaf of the engraved title borders to the first part, in which the central cartouche which would have contained a letterpress title and imprint is here blank. Neat manuscript annotations appear throughout: atop each engraving is a brief title, along with a notation of the biblical book and chapter(s); beneath each engraving are six-lines of rhyming verse in German; at the top corners are leaf numbers in Arabic numerals. All are penned in black ink in the same old cursive German hand. The engraved title leaf is not included in the manuscript foliation. The first three leaf numbers (and several others among the first 23 leaves) are obscured by wear or later marginal repairs. The foliation ends at leaf 233, and is discontinuous where one would expect to find numbers 15 and 38, corresponding to the missing plates noted above. As noted by Wütrich, only four of the 233 plates are signed by Merian, all in the New Testament series. Each of these signed plates appears in our suite: Matthaei I. - page 7; Johannis VIII. - page 65; Matthaei XXVII. - page 101; Apocalyps. IX. - page 145 (header titles and page numbers from the first edition). The first editions were published at Frankfurt in four parts between 1625 and 1627. The Pentateuch series was published in 1625. The second part, illustrating the Old Testament books from Joshua to Kings, appeared in 1626. These first two series were published under the name of Merian's father-in-law, the printer and bookseller Johann Theodor de Bry (1561-1623), whose heirs retained title to the business. The third part illustrates the remainder of the Old Testament and Apocrypha; the fourth, the New Testament. These last two parts were published in 1627 under the engravers's own name. Verses in Latin, German, and French accompany each plate in the three Old Testament series, the French verses being omitted in the 1627 New Testament series. While the eminent Swiss draughtsman and engraver Matthaeus Merian is best known for his topographical depictions of the German speaking lands which appeared in the Theatrum Europaeum, his novel selection of biblical stories and innovative stylistic approach revealed in the present series of plates proved highly influential, ushering in a new age of copperplate engraving in Bible illustration. Merian broke with the century-long tradition of woodcuts, which had accompanied countless editions of Luther's German Bible. Even as he drew on the Bible illustrations of Jost Amman, Hans Holbein, Virgil Solis, and Tobias Stimmer, Merian greatly expanded the traditional iconographic and compositional repertoire. The Old Testament alone contains 23 prints depicting stories that had never before been the subject of an engraver. While earlier New Testament woodcuts focused on the Book of Revelation, Merian now provided a rich series of plates to illustrate the Gospels and Acts of the Apostles, as well. Merian had an obvious preference for crowd scenes and battles, along with some of the novelistic features of the Old Testament, such as Jacob's lentil dish, Solomon and Shulamit in the Song of Songs, or the apocryphal story of the Dragon in Babylon. Merian sometimes provides local color from his home town of Basel as in his depiction of Solomon's Temple Consecration in which, despite the baroque redesign, the Basel Cathedral with the old choir is easily recognizable. The costumes and gestures of Merian's biblical characters display a baroque fantasy of the ancient Near East as reflected in the theater of his day; in depicting cities and buildings, however, Merian generally prefers to follow contemporary models. In individual cases, such as Bathsheba's Bath, he succumbed to the temptation as an engraver and artist to show off his skills in a magnificent, fashionable palace and garden complex. All-in-all Merian's engravings initiated a development in Bible illustration "that led further and further away from the [didactic] Reformation purpose of Bible pictures to purely artistic-representational purposes, and finally ended in the well-known pathos of the [German Romantic] Nazarenes" (Schmidt). In the first few decades after their appearance, these Bible plates were widely copied throughout Europe, especially in the Netherlands and France (Poortman). The first folio Bible to use Merian's copper plates to illustrate the text was published by the heirs of Lazarus Zetzner at Strasbourg in 1630. Subsequent editions of the "Merian Bible" were published at Frankfurt, where Merian had taken over his father-in-law, Johann de Bry's, business. For over a century, as Merian's heirs continued to publish new editions, this would become "the most widespread German illustrated Bible in southern Germany, Basel, and Alsace, primarily in wealthy house.
