Description

 

Matham, Bloemaert after A. Diepenbeeck und P. Brebiette.   Paris, P. Mariette, 1655 (here in the very scarce reissue of the plates in 1795)   Leaf: 33 x 24.5 cm ; 13 x 9.7 inches   Superb hand color   ORIGINAL FOLIO HANDCOLOURED ENGRAVING.   From:   Tableaux du Temple des Muses Representant les Vertus, et les vices, sur les plus Illustres fables de l\'Antiquité.   References: See Brunet III, 1443. Landwehr 502. Goldsmith M 47.   Abraham van Diepenbeeck (9 May 1596 (baptised) - May-Sept. 1675) was an erudite and accomplished Dutch painter of the Flemish School.   It was after a visit to Italy that the artist began to paint chiefly in oil and to illustrate. Among his illustrations are fifty-eight designs engraved by Cornelis Bloemaert for the Abbe de Marolles\' \"Tableaux du Temple des Muses\".   During the reign of Charles I of England, van Diepenbeeck was in England where, besides painting portraits of the first Duke of Newcastle and his family, the artist illustrated that nobleman\'s book on \"Horsemanship\".   Unhappy with Picart\'s reissue ofthe pates in 1731 which incorporated heavy baroque borders, this is one on only a handfull of plates issued in 1795 in their true form.    Condition: Please view images carefully. Even age toning. Light spotting and staining.

About Me

After owning retail bookshops in Lucerne and Interlaken in Switzerland, as well as a online sale business, I am delighted to be back in the United Kingdom.

Having studied at Oxford University in the early 1980s I was lucky enough to learn about the rare book trade by scuttling around the markets and sale houses of London at a time when it was still quite possible to discover \"that find\". Similarly I was able to hone my specialist interests in early photography, the history of science and Helvetica, something that I hope is still reflected in the items I offer.

The aim is to offer the rare, interesting, unusual, beautiful and strange. So at the very least we hope your visit to the site to be a rewarding and enlightening experience!
