Sobre este artículo
Zurich: Christoffel Froschouer 1st edition, 1556. Hardcover. Good. Woodcuts (104), many first used in the Schweizer-Chronik of 1548 with scenes of battles, sieges of cities, convocations, portraits &c. . Small folio (29.4 x 19.5mm) in sixes, 19th century half-calf with marbled boards, spine labels with gilt title in French and date 1556 (edges worn, labels chipped). Titlepage with woodcut printer's mark, 2 leaves (A2-A3) dedication & argument + CXXXVII leaves of German text, illustrated with woodcuts throughout. Lacks 7 preliminary leaves (Sources A4, Register B-B6) and one final blank leaf, otherwise collated complete. Title and the 2 preliminary leaves have small edge-tears and are re-hinged on newer paper stubs, text pages mostly clean and crisp with occasional small marks and light browning. Bookplates: "ex Libris Ludovic Blondin" and armorial "Friedemann Graf und Herr von Werthern". *Rare early Protestant treatise intended to show the harmful effects of Papacy, partly based on sources collected by Joachim Vadian. Written as a History of the life of Holy Roman Emperor Henry IV (1050-1106), it also mentions some events from British history, citing the Venerable Bede, John Scotus, Archbishop Lanfranc and William the Conquerer. Black Letter text in German with printed side-notes. The 104 text woodcuts are of superb quality, well printed, some some after designs by Holbein (reference BM STC German, 1455-1600 p.839).
