115 copper engravings accompanying the verses of Kaspar Merian (1627 - 1686), son of Matthäus Merian the Elder and lived as a copper engraver in Frankfurt am Main. Sebastian Brand's "Ship of Fools" from 1494 served as a model for this work. Wahrmund Jocoserius signed as editor, the publisher is said to have been Peter Conrad Monath and the book was printed in excellent quality in Nuremberg. The original is owned by the Herzog August Library in Wolfenbüttel and measures 20.5 x 32 cm. This edition is a facsimile from 1981.

Study time. I was so lucky to find recently a beautiful facsimile of Juan de Yciar's wonderful copybook from the 16th century. He was especially known for his big Rotunda exemplars (written with a metal nib), and his luscious border and initial designs. Also his Cancellaresca features quite interesting flourishing forms, I think! :: Wunderschönes Faksimile der "Arte Subtilissima" des Spanischen Kalligrafen Jusn de Yciar! #calligraphy #kalligrafie #kalligraphie #historical #historisch #faksimile #woodcut #holzschnitt #flourishforum #federflugcalligraphy
