Add to basketRare first separately published French edition of an important and influential interpretation of the stories of the Old and New Testament, in the popular form of 113 engraved illustrations by Pieter van der Borcht (1535-1608), from Mechelen, and explanatory text by the anti-denominational Dutch mystic Hendrik Jansen (van) Barrefelt, also known as "Hiël" (ca. 1530-1594?). Barrefelt initiated two series of engravings for pictorial Bibles around 1582, believing that the contemplation of the biblical images would speak to a wide audience and bring them closer to God, though he also believed that other pictorial Bibles distorted the Bible's meaning. He enlisted Van der Borcht to produce two series of etched and engraved illustrations of Bible stories and wrote brief commentaries to help people understand the images. Hamilton convincingly argues that the present series B was designed to appeal more to Protestants and the other series A to appeal more to Catholics. Hamilton calls these pictorial Bibles Barrefelt's "most successful" publications, "both in his lifetime and after."With an early owner's name partly obscured with an ink wash on the title page. Slightly browned, a few quires with faint water stains, and an occasional marginal tear or early restoration, but still generally in good condition. The vellum of the binding is wrinkled and shows several small tears, holes and cuts, and some early repairs and restorations.l A.

[4 blank], 57 of a possible 60 plates, [8 blank], 59 and 60 apparently never included, residue of stub to pl. 20. Watermark: coat of arms surmounted by trefoil. Engraved title with half-figure of Christ within frame depicting scientifically accurate fruit and animals; 57 numbered miniature engravings (62 x 48mm) printed on recto or verso, signed HSD, PB or IS. A few lower edges untrimmed, slight browning in places (damp paper), small ink burn to blank lower edge of a dozen ll., extreme lower outer blank corner of last few ll. ink stained and a trifle frayed, occasional minor finger-soiling to blank margins. A very good, unsophisticated copy in contemporary limp vellum, lacking ties. Ms. autograph 1583 Di Pellegrino Pellegrini (lightly crossed out) and later ms. Di Francesco Spada to first blank, C16 pen trials to blank verso of pl.12 (Pellegrini s?). This charming little book was in the library of Pellegrino Pellegrini (or Pellegrino Tibaldi, 1527-96) c.1583, the famous Italian Mannerist painter and architect, who worked extensively in Milan (esp. at the Chiesa di San Carlo Borromeo) and at the Escorial, replacing Federico Zuccari. This autograph is strikingly similar, in shape and style of the letters, to that on a holograph architectural drawing of the Sanctuary of Caravaggio (Pellegrini, pl.VII). Illustrated works focusing on the New Testament were very popular at the time, Pellegrini had a similar one for the Old Testament in his library. Pellegrino may have used such works not only for personal devotion, but also as iconographic sources for his paintings (Giuliani, p.80). Very rare collection of miniature biblical engravings illustrating episodes from the life of Christ. In addition to the title, this volume includes 57 exquisite plates here in fine impression out of a total of 60 (cf. Nagler, Brulliot and New Hollstein), plus an engraved title with charming and naturalistic depictions of plants and animals. Pocket-size collections of images like this one were carried around by artists as both instruments of personal devotion and sources of inspiration; for this reason they very rarely survive intact or complete. Of the 6 recorded copies in New Hollstein - excluding the present, which appears to be the only one known to have been bound 4 are incomplete and 1 unspecified. 18 engravings were cut by Monogrammist HSD. About 40 overall are after designs by Pieter van der Borcht (cf. New Hollstein). A renowned Flemish painter and etcher, Borcht worked as an illustrator for Plantin, e.g., on Dodoen s famous herbarium as well as numerous liturgical works. Monogrammist HSD was a Dutch engraver active in the period 1570-80, possibly in Antwerp (cf. Nagler). His extant work focuses on biblical illustrations, including a suite of engravings of the 12 apostles, after the German painter Hans Sebald Beham. 8 engravings, including the title, are here signed PB . No. 32 bears a monogram which could be read IS or SI , and which remains unidentified; no. 46 is signed HDS , perhaps for HSD .

Illustrated By: Theodor Galle / Pieter van der Borcht Illustrator Bio: Theodor Galle (Dirck or Theodoor Galle, 1571-1633), working from designs by Pieter van der Borcht the Elder (c. 1545-1608) Provenance: S. del C. de Torrepalma - a provenance note for the Spanish noble house that held the title Conde de Torrepalma ("Count of Torrepalma"). The Condado de Torrepalma is a Spanish comital title created by King Carlos II in 1679 (royal dispatch 4 Nov 1680) for Alonso Verdugo y Albornoz. The title later passed into the Álvarez de las Asturias Bohórquez line and, by marriage and succession, connected with the Dukes of Gor. The name derives from the Torrepalma estate near Carmona (Seville). Notable holders include Alonso Verdugo de Castilla (1706-1767), 3rd Count, a diplomat, poet, and member of the Real Academia Española and Real Academia de la Historia. Synopsis: [Bound with:] Analecta sive Observationes reliquae ad militiam. Antuerpiae: apud Ioannem Moretum, 1602. Giusto Lipsio First Plantin-Moretus illustrated edition of Lipsius's classic reconstruction of the Roman army, a foundational text of early modern military science. In De Militia Romana Lipsius (1547-1606) systematises the organization, discipline, and tactics of the legions from Polybius and other classical sources, reviving Roman practice for use in the age of gunpowder. Its companion Analecta supplies further antiquarian notes. The magnificent suite of engravings?executed under Theodor Galle from van der Borcht's designs?represents one of the high points of the Plantin-Moretus press and the first sustained visual archaeology of the Roman army. The work was studied by Maurice of Nassau and other reformers who shaped seventeenth-century drill and tactics. A cornerstone of Renaissance military scholarship and a beautiful product of the Antwerp engraving tradition. Complete examples with all plates and the large folding Iconismus intact are now uncommon.

Scarce, illustrated Spanish edition, the first by Plantin, of La Marche's allegorical work Le chevalier délibéré. A beautiful 16th-century edition of this popular allegory with the suite of twenty-one splendid etchings, attributed to Pieter van der Borcht. Translated into Spanish by Hernando de Acuna (c.15201580) the much-esteemed poet and translator of the Spanish Golden Age. Le chevalier délibéré is the most important poetic work of Olivier de La Marche (14221502), the Burgundian courtier, poet and chronicler, "a didactic poem describing a knight's search for salvation through the vehicle of a quest. At first, he is impulsive, leaving his house par une soudaine achoison, on the spur of the moment. He is started along the way by Thought, who brings him to a realization of his soul's unprepared state and who acquaints him with the encounters he must face with the henchmen of Atropos, Goddess of Death: Accident and Debility. The knight as Author is befriended by the hermit Understanding and eventually arrives at the house of Study where Fresh Memory begins his real instruction." (Caroll, 1999.)
