Erste englische Ausgabe. - "These prints here ... are some of the finest left to us by the ancient school of engravery ... The historical dates, represented by these engravings, are most part arranged with great care and attention after a constant plan in manner, that each plate makes up a whole both fine and harmonical. There is above all in them an admirable variety, a plenty and careful choice of ideas in the frames of the pictures, for there are different emblems in every plate, and every-where the eye meets with new objects, fine, energical and interesting, not only well adapted to the chief picture, but well distributed too in an excellent order and symmetrie." (Vorwort) - Frontispiz nach Tafel 9 eingebunden. Ränder schwach gebräunt, vord. Vorsatzbll. mit hs. Eintragungen. Einbd. berieben, Ecken bestoßen.
