A professor and theologian, he made a name for himself in particular with "Calvinismus Detectus, & dedoctus," a scholarly and vigorous book that condemns Calvinist Protestantism in the strongest terms. In it, the author responds to two Calvinist letters, one from the philologist Johann Georg Grævius (1632-1703), a convert, and the other from Johann Jakob Vedrosi (1624-1706). With headbands, initials, and tailpieces. Slight loss to the spine, small moth holes in the very first pages with no other damage, two small blank pieces of paper glued to cover the original monastery stamps.

The cover design here is identical to that on a folio edition of the Psalms pictured in figure 67 of Jan Storm van Leeuwen's "Dutch Decorated Bookbinding in the Eighteenth Century." According to that work the Baroque Flower Bindery was active in The Hague between 1778 and 1783; the Dutch Royal Library Koninklijke Bibliotheek holds four bindings executed there. One is the folio Psalms mentioned above and the others are presentation bindings. The Baroque Flower Bindery used some tools that had been employed by an earlier Hague workshop known as the Flower Bindery fl. ca. 1751-80 and its tools including the flower basket used here later turned up on bindings by Cornelius A. Matthijs fl. ca. 1795-1801 indicating the way artisans and their tools migrated from one workshop to another. The text here is the second Dutch translation of the magnum opus of John Calvin 1509-64. First published in Latin in 1536 and in Dutch translated by Carolus Agricola in 1578 the present work sets forth the tenets of Calvin's theology. In the words of Britannica the "interpretation of Christianity advanced above all in his . . . 'Institutes of the Christian Religion' and the institutional and social patterns he worked out for Geneva deeply influenced Protestantism elsewhere in Europe and in North America. The Calvinist form of Protestantism is widely thought to have had a major impact on the formation of the modern world." The four parts of this work--covering Knowledge of God the Creator Knowledge of God the Redeemer Christ the Way to Obtain the Grace of Christ and the True Church and Articles of Faith--are supplemented in this edition by Calvin's "Supplication" calling for reform of the Catholic Church. Britannica notes that "the 'Institutes' also reflected the findings of Calvin's massive biblical commentaries" and that influence is epitomized in the fine portrait of the great Reformer in his library by Cornelis Visscher 1629-58. Calvin stands at his desk a copy of the "Institutio" open in his hands the Geneva Bible and his many commentaries on Scripture displayed on his desk and bookshelves. It is a scene that shows the gentler scholarly side of Calvin who is more often depicted as a stern ascetic zealot. RBH seems to list no other bindings by the Baroque Flower Bindery at auction.
