É um dos livros mais importantes publicados no século XVII para o estudo da mitologia na literatura da época. Trata-se de um fólio com mais de 500 páginas ilustrado com 58 gravuras de página inteira.<br />A presente obra toma a de Marolles como ponto de partida embora no prefácio se avise que o «título é quase a única conformidade que existe entre a sua obra e a que agora é dada ao público»; e que a presente obra é detentora de uma mais completa e precisa explicação histórica. Não obstante a estrutura da obra é claramente semelhante sendo o seu conteúdo modificado e resumido relativamente à primeira. No mesmo prefácio se refere ainda que algumas das gravuras se baseiam naquelas que ilustram a obra de Marolles embora «apareçam aqui com tão grandes mudanças que tirando a excepção têm todo o mérito da novidade».</p>_x000d_<p>Bernard Picart Paris 1673 Amsterdam 1733 foi um notável ilustrador que ganhou muita reputação na Holanda e com um estilo semelhante ao de Rembrandt e Guido Reni.</p>_x000d_<p>Antoine de Labarre de Beaumarchais 1698 1750 é autor do texto.

Nevertheless the structure of the work is clearly similar its contents being modified and summarised in comparison with the first. The same preface also mentions that some of the engravings are based on those illustrating the work of Marolles although "they appear here with such great changes that apart from the exception they have all the merit of novelty".</p>_x000d_<p>Bernard Picart Paris 1673 - Amsterdam 1733 was a noted illustrator who gained much reputation in the Netherlands and with a style similar to that of Rembrandt and Guido Reni.</p>_x000d_<p>Antoine de Labarre de Beaumarchais 1698 - 1750 is the author of the text.
