A propos de cet article

2 volumes bound as 1. Beautiful German emblem book (volume 1 with verses in German and Latin, volume 2 in German with Latin distichs), with large love emblems engraved by Raphael Custos (1590-1664) after the Amorum emblemata by Otto Vaenius (1556-1629), one of the most popular emblem books, which went through various adaptations all over Europe. Custos dedicated the book on both title-pages to Philipp Heinhofer or Hainhofer (1578-1647), a leading Augsburg merchant, adding a Latin and German dedication and a Latin and German preface in volume 1. In volume 1 Custos used Vaenius's Latin mottos and verses, adding a German variant in 4 to 6 lines. The love-emblems appear in a large oval inside a rectangle. At the end of the first part the colophon states that the book was printed for publication by Custos by Luca Schultes in 1623.The second part, published some 8 years later, is entirely engraved, with the love emblems occupying more than half of the plate, and a German motto, a Latin distich, and verses in German. The plain endpapers have their chain lines unusually close together (about 1.6 cm) but one can see only the top of the watermark, difficult to identify but topped by a small cross above a quatrefoil.With a tear running into the text of 1 engraved leaf, some other marginal tears, and somewhat thumbed, but otherwise in good condition. The sewing is loose, with 1 bifolium nearly detached, the parchment has wormholes and tears and lacks its ties. An Augsburg love emblem book with 73 engraved emblems.l Landwehr, German emblem books 217-218; Praz, p. 525; USTC 2528015 (7 copies, only first part); VD17 23:247454Q (first part). 17th-century sheepskin parchment, sewn on 3 double cords, with a hollow back, each board with a border of double-blind fillets, with 17th-century combed and curled marbled wrappers of both parts bound in, preserved in a new cloth portfolio (lined with Japanese paper) in a matching half goatskin morocco slipcase. With 2 engraved title pages, each with the title in a large scrollwork cartouche and the arms of the dedicatee, Philipp Heinhofer or Hainhofer, 50 numbered oval emblems in rectangles (8.5 x 12 cm) in the first volume. The second volume has, besides the engraved title page, 23 wholly engraved leaves, each with an emblem (9.5 x 10.5 cm) with the German motto above, a Latin distich below, and below that a 4-line German verse. The emblem pages in both volumes are printed on the rectos only except for the colophon on the back of the last emblem in volume 1. Further with a large woodcut scrollwork tailpiece, and woodcut roman and gothic decorated initials. In volume 1 the German texts are set in fraktur types and the Latin texts in roman types.
