Summary
[edit]DescriptionWidow of Daniel Elsevier and Christoffel van Dijck type specimen, 1681.jpg |
English: Specimen of printing types issued by the widow of Daniel Elsevier, most of the specimen showing types cut by Christoffel van Dijck (possibly some by his son Abraham), and some older types. Printed by January 1681 for the auction of the foundry, to take place on 5th March 1681, although ultimately the sale did not take place as Elsevier died before this date. Many of the types shown are by van Dijck (or possibly his short-lived son Abraham) but not all. Specifically, the type of the word "Proeven" is by van den Keere, the Dubbelde Mediaen Kapitalen, Brevier No. 2 and Augustijn No. 2 romans and Paragon, Augustijn, first Mediaen and Garmont italic by Granjon, the Dubblede Descendiaan titling capitals and Text roman by Garamond, and the Mediaen Romeyn No. 2 probably by Pierre Haultin. The Brevier italic (the showings share many but not all characters) is of uncertain attribution; it seems to be a copy of a Granjon italic, whether van Dijck or someone else cut it. The Dubbelde Text and Dubbelde Augustijn capitals may also be by other engravers See the Wikipedia article for sources. |
