Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. 1st Edition. Large-format hardcover 28 x 22 cm, xiv + 548 pages, NOT ex-library. High-density glossy paper to support the detailed photography of stained glass; copiously illustrated. Shipping weight over 3kg. Fine internally, clean and bright throughout with unmarked text, free of inscriptions and stamps, firmly bound. A short & deep scratch right above the lower edge of the front board; rubbed tip of the lower outer corner of both boards. Issued without a dust jacket. -- This is a definitive scholarly catalogue of silver-stained glass roundels and unipartite panels - small-scale works that were highly popular in both domestic and ecclesiastical settings prior to the French Revolution. Cees Berserik and Joost Caen have spent decades assembling the world's most extensive database on glass roundels and this volume represents an exhaustive inventory of works found in the historical provinces of Flemish Brabant and Limburg. The book covers 15th- to 18th-century silver-stained glass currently held in public buildings, museums and private collections, while also documenting significant pieces whose current whereabouts are unknown. Central to the work is an exploration of the unique silver-stain method - a technique that allowed artists to paint yellow or gold tones directly onto glass without the need for lead lines - which became a flourishing medium in Netherlandish art. The checklist tracks a vast range of iconographic themes, from complex biblical narratives to intricate heraldic emblems, providing a vital foundation for identifying artists such as Pieter Coecke van Aelst, Dirick Vellert and Jan Swart van Groningen. The volume includes detailed provenance, condition reports and stylistic attributions for every piece catalogued. Part of the international project, an extensive scholarly initiative dedicated to documenting pre-1700 stained glass.
