1549 FAMED Alciati EMBLEMS Emblematica Herbal Medicine Mythology 100s Woodcuts
"Plenitudo potestatis nihil aliud est quam violentia." (The fullness of power is nothing more than violence).
― Andrea Alciati
An incredible first edition of Alciati's 'Emblemata'. This 1549 edition includes countless woodcut-engraved devices. These illustrations helped inspire thousands of imitations throughout Europe on secular and religious themes. The commentaries on each emblem were written by French scholar Claude Mignault. Devices depict pastoral scenes, cathedrals, military, mythological creatures, and more. 'Emblematica' provides important clues and shows - with brevity of style - concern for the eternal nature of man and human nature. Per Saunders in "The 17th-century French Emblem,"
"Alciato's emblem book went through a large number of transformations from the original very crude and simple form. Its early transformation into a work which was both aesthetically more pleasing and visually more accurate…with a very different treatment of the original… by Claude Mignault in 1584."
