Description
1698 Ripa Iconologia Illustrated Emblem Art Egypt ROME Baudoin Provenance RARE
One of the most influential collections of emblems!
Cesare Rip was a 16th-century Italian emblematist known exclusively for his book Iconologia. This book was a highly influential emblem book which covered various allegories and icons of Egyptian, Greek, and Roman origin. Curiously, the earliest edition of Ripas masterpiece included no illustrations at all. Later editions were supplemented with woodcuts many of which were used in various teaching-art and allegory books.
This 1698 French edition was reissued from the original French of 1636 and features 29 full-page engravings depicting 174 emblems. An impressive work!
