Publisher

Description
"Iani Aubrij Typis" on t.p. above imprint is retained from the 1st ed. (Metz, 1584), as is the privilege on p. [95] dated Jan. 8, 1584, granted to Jean Aubry, Boissard's father-in-law. Faber published 12mo eds. without ill. in 1585 and 1587. See Praz
Letterpress title within engraved architectural border. Port. of Boissard on p. 9 is by Alexandre Vallée; see BN graveurs. Each emblem has a head-piece of printer's ornaments on the left-hand page, followed by the text in French verse. At head of the facing right-hand page is a one-line dedication in Latin, followed by the engraved ill. with Latin motto at top and, as a rule, additional text within the ill. Landwehr ascribes the ill. to Theodor de Bry, who published German and Latin eds. at Frankfurt in 1593, but in BN Graveurs they are ascribed to Adam Fuchs after drawings by Boissard, and the ill. on p. 75 is signed with the monogram AF. Below each ill. are two lines made up of contiguous dashes, followed by the Latin quatrain
Landwehr calls for an additional port. on p. [96], but it is blank in the present copy
Each of the 42 emblematic ill. after the first two are numbered to the left of the motto at top. Only even numbers are used; they run from 8 to 86, with the 4 ill. on p. 65-71 (gathering I) numbered irregularly 58, 64, 62, 60. A second sequence of numbers appears at the lower right of the ill., again starting with the 3rd emblem, and running from 5 to 40; some of these numbers are transposed, omitted, or imperfectly effaced
Getty copy lacks the cancelled text on I2 and I4, mentioned by Landwehr, 165a
