Hardcover. Condition: Fine. SOLE EDITION. Bound in contemporary limp vellum (mild soiling, a bit rumpled, re-cased, endpapers renewed, lacking ties), the boards blind-ruled with a large central compartment with small tools at the corners and a central armorial stamp. (re-cased, endpapers renewed) A fine copy with light marginal soiling and minor foxing. The individual leaves are on guards, with some early staining and small paper flaws in the innermost part of the gutter. Discreet marginal paper repairs to title, leaves of first gathering, and final leaf (decorative border at bottom of final leaf perhaps inlaid from another copy). With the bookplate of the German mathematician Constantin Carathédory (1873-1950) on the front pastedown; ink stamp on the title page verso of the Ducal Library of Gotha. A landmark in numismatic literature and the history of coin collecting. Magnificently illustrated with 118 extremely large woodcut medallion portraits of Roman, Carolingian, and Holy Roman emperors, surrounded by inscriptions in imitation of coins. Each portrait image is set within an elaborate ornamental frame with grotesques, putti, cherubs, and arrangements of fruit. The woodcut borders, signed R W (with a quill pen) and HR MD (with a wood engraver?s knife) are, according to Nagler, the work of the Zürich woodcutter and painter Rudolf Wyssenbach (active 1545-1560) and Hans Rudolf Manuel Deutsch (1525-1571). The text pages, which also have woodcut borders, also feature elaborate decorative patterns, designed for intarsia and metalwork by Peter Flötner, and first printed in his ?Kunstbuch?(Zurich, 1549). The title page border (signed C.S.) is by Christoph Schweitzer (active 1558-1562), and was possibly designed by Jos Murer (1530-1580). I. ?The Most Accurate Likenesses of All of the Roman Emperors of the Eastern and Western Empires?(1559) SOLE EDITION of this masterpiece of book design by the Swiss publisher Andreas Gessner, inspired by the numismatic encyclopedia compiled by the antiquarian, goldsmith, architect, collector and antiquities dealer Jacopo Strada (1507-1588). The book shares strong affinities with Strada?s great, unpublished, multi-volume thesaurus of coins and medals (about which see below), which had been commissioned by the German banker, collector, and art patron Hans Jacob Fugger (1516-1557). In 1553, Jacopo Strada had published an epitome of his growing numismatic collection in a quarto volume entitled ?Epitome Thesauri Antiquitatum?, which featured coin-sized (4 cm.) woodcuts of 391 of imperial coins from his collection. These were accompanied by letterpress transcriptions of the coins? inscriptions and biographies of the subjects. In 1557, Andreas Gessner printed a new edition of Strada?s ?Epitome?, also with small woodcuts. For his monumental 1559 ?Imagines?(?The Most Accurate Likenesses of All of the Roman Emperors of the Eastern and Western Empires?), Gessner reprinted Strada?s biographies and inscriptions. For the 118 woodcut medallion portraits, Gessner drew from the images in Strada?s ?Epitome? as well as the important coin books of Andrea Fulvio (1517), Johann Huttich (1534), and Guillaume Rouille (1553). He has also copied some actual coins. In his introduction to this 1559 volume, Andreas Gessner explains his motivations for producing this book of nearly life-sized Roman imperial portraits, executed in profile in the manner or coins and medals. Gessner tells us that he had been working for some time on portraits of the Roman emperors to be used as decoration -in the manner of Paolo Giovio- in dining rooms and banqueting halls. The grand, single-sheet portraits in the ?Imagines? can now serve this function for purchasers wishing to decorate their own homes (presumably they are to serve as models for artists to render paintings.) The lives of the emperors, taken from Jacopo Strada?s illustrated ?Epitome? of his coin collection, will edify and provide grist for dinner conversation. For the antiquarian interested in numismatics, Gessner set out to improve upon earlier coin books, in which the coins and medals were illustrated by small woodcuts. These required keen eyesight to study. The much larger format of the ?Imagines? has allowed for more accurate depictions of the emperors and, consequently, will make consultation of the portraits much easier. Gessner has divided his series into three ?classes?: the ancient emperors from Julius Caesar to Constantine; from Constantine to Charlemagne; and from Charlemagne to the reigning emperor, Ferdinand I. Although the last portrait is that of Ferdinand?s brother and predecessor, Charles V (abdicated 1556, died 1558), the inscription reads ?Charles reigns in the west Ferdinand in the east. How well is rule divided between two brothers!? I. The Paper Museum: Gessner?s ?Imagines? & Strada?s ?Magnum ac Novum Opus?: ?I have not limited myself merely to know the names and to recognize the portraits of the ancient personalities [depicted on the coins], but have learnt by long and assiduous study not only to draw them on paper, but also to model them both in gold and other metals and in marble.? -Jacopo Strada to King Maximilian II, June 1559 A renowned antiquarian and artist, Jacopo Strada served as official antiquary to three emperors: FerdinandI, MaximilianIIand RudolfII. He was an avid collector of antiquities, particularly of coins, and served as an agent for great collectors, most notably the German banker and arts patron Hans Jacob Fugger (1516-1557). In Titian?s well-known portrait of Strada, now in the Kunsthistorisches Museum, Vienna, the richly-dressed antiquarian is shown handling an ancient sculpture over a table on which lies another, fragmentary sculpture and a number of coins. Beginning around 1550, Strada began work on his monumental 36-volume manuscript catalogue of imperial medals and coins, commissioned by Hans Jacob Fugger (1516-1557), titled ?Magnum ac Novum Opus continens descriptionem imaginum, numismatum omnium tam Orientalium quam Occidentalium Imp.
