[LAMPSONIUS, Dominicus] Illustrium quos Belgium habuit pictorum effigies, ad vivum accurate delineatae, nec non, quo quisque tempore et vixerit, et obierit. Antwerp Th. Galle [ca. 1602] Folio (37 x 22,5 cm): 23 pl. (some minor staining in blank margin, tiny hole in portr. 15). Old marbled calf (corners bumped), covers with gilt frame, gilt flat spine with red leather title label (front joint split, sm. def. at head & tail), sp. edges. Very good copy with sharp impressions and very large margins. Very rare, important suite of 21 portraits of 15th-16th-c. artists from the Netherlands. The orig. ed.

After her death, the copperplates were bought by fellow Antwerp publisher Th. Galle, who published this undated edition of the series. Our copy contains an engr. title, an engr. title without text, and 21 (of 23) finely engraved numbered portraits of i.a. Hubert & Jan van Eyck, Hieronymus Bosch, Rogier van der Weyden, Bernard van Orley, Lucas van Leyden, Pieter Coecke van Aelst and Frans Floris.
