About This Item
1693. Leaf. Very Good +. Folio, 26.5 x 19.2cm, handcolored engraving, from Evangelicae Historiae Imagines ["Illustrations of the Gospel Stories"). Ignatius Loyola suggested to his friend Jerome Nadal the need of commissioning a series of engraings that used perspective and annotations to draw the reader into the biblical stories, so they could become more real and of use to daily meditation. The artists for this work were the best Flemish engravers of the day including members of the Wierx family, C. de Mallory, and A. Collaert, all related to the Galle publishers of Antwerp. Most of the plates are after drawings of the Italian artist Bernardo Passari, and a few are after drawings by Martin de Vos. This engraving is from a later French edition published in Paris by Jean Baptiste Loison in 1683. A little dusty with light staining, minor scuffing. [Note: we grade conservatively and endeavor to identify any defects that might affect overall quality and price.].
