In this long study he deals with the formation of a painting collection and its technical aspects such as cleaning , restoration, safeguarding against deterioration etc. He also discusses the merits of different schools of paintings and e.g. the system that ''de Piles'' had devised to judge the quality of paintings.

They amassed over 600 Roman & Greek statues, bas reliefs etc. It was the foremost collection in early baroque Europe and it was Vincenzo's idea to illustrate this collection with this ''catalogue'' - the first illustrated art collection catalogue ever . The German artist Sandrart was commissioned to supervise the undertaking for which he engaged the foremost artists of his time, many of them non-Italian (see those mentioned in the title). When in 1983 a large part of the original plates were rediscovered in Genoa it was decided to place them in a purposely founded institute in Rome . This gave an enormous impulse to the study of t his collection whose remains were dispersed in the 18th and 19th century and found a place in all the main art collections of the world. price: €22500.00 |

— Flammulae Amoris S.P. Augustini Veribus et Iconibus Exornatae. (Suite of 30 engravings on japan paper). Antverpiae, (Antwerpen) Apud Henricum & Cornel. Verdussen, 1708, suite of 30 engravings on japan paper (modern impressions). These emblematical illustrations were first issued in 1628 by H.Aertssens. In this first edition most of the plates were signed by G.Collaert (MPM A 3980). A second edition followed in 1639 (MPM A 4012). For this third edition obviously a new set of plates was made. They are all unsigned and have received a thin frameline. (MPM A 2802, B.C.N.I. n°16672,FUNCK pp. 338). Funck notes that ''l'édition de 1708 (a) de très mauvaises figures. Quelques figures n'avaient pas paru dans l'édition de 1629, mais sont mal gravées. After collation we can ascertain that the plates 4, 6, 14, 18, have indeed been added to the third edition, and that they appear in a slightly different style. Our overall judgment on the quality of the suite is however much less harsh than Funck. This is a nice set of emblematical engravings printed on thick japan paper. The set is kept in red cloth box. price: €325.00 |

Top of spine with some worming but still a fine copy. Rare and only edition of this work with fine emblems (illustrating the Dutch countryside and interiors as well as allegorical situations), and in the introduction a linguistic offering, a chronogram and a poem. The author was a Polish carmelite. The engravings are designed by Jan Thomas (1617-1678), born Ieper, perhaps pupil of Rubens, became court painter at Mainz and Vienna and engraved by Arnold Loemans. Loemans became a master in Antwerp in 1632-33 (See B. Linnig: La Gravure en Belgique pp 125). Praz pp. 495. Cicognara, 1919. Note: We assume that the book is complete, unless it should contain a frontispiece engraving, which is lacking . We could not compare with another copy. The printer made some mistakes in the designation of the preliminaries. There are 8 preliminary leaves, which is obvious for an in-4°. They are designated as follows: (title) + (a3) + (a4) + (a5) ; (permissio) + (blank) + (text) + (text). So only three leaves have a designation and the sixth leaf was left completely blank. In the proper text at the first quire he makes another mistake. Designation is : A + A2 + A2 + ( ). The second A2 has been corrected in ink in a contemporary hand in A3. price: €1800.00 |

(Plate volume II) 121 plates (numbered I-LXXIII , architettura ; I-XLVIII , scultura). Uniformly bound, together with Cigonara's ''Storia della scultura...editione secunda'' in 6 modern half-leather volumes, with smooth spine with gilt ornaments and title-label, marbled boards and end-papers. A nice handsomely bound set ,notwithstanding some marginal worming and waterstains in volume 4 and some small ex-library stamps on some pages. The plates and the 5 other text volumes are nearly stainless. Complete first edition, in-folio, of the Italian translation of this art history of the modern western world describing the architecture, painting and sculpture of Western Europe from the 4th until the 16th century. It was published nearly simultaneously with the French edition. It was the author's plan to imitate Winckelmann's study on ancient, classical art with this study on Christian Art but he lacked Winkelmann's critical acumen and he died before finishing it. In 1822 Cicognara published his famous bibliography on art books (Catalogo dei libri d'arte). Seroux-d'Agincourt's work receives here the honour to be mentioned as the first art book (item nr.1) but with the critical note that his illustrations are too small. Cicognara himself tried to remedy this by publishing a continuation to the work of Winckelmann and Seroux d'Agincourt. Here the second edition of the plate album, in-folio, with 185 plates (published in Prato, Giachetti, 1823) is added, uniformly bound with the Seroux volumes. price: €3850.00 |
