I: Of Carnal Security in Virgin Churches Scans available. Leather over thick boards. Significant 2" gouge to leather bottom rear foreedge corner corners through. Edgewear as you would expect. Hubbed spine with title label. Title page notes posthumously produced by Shepard's son and Jonathan Mitchell pastor at Cambridge with no date listed. In a box below it reports a printing in London 1660. Binding is holding together reasonably well but would benefit by some restorative measures. Paper is in quite nice condition but has rippling throughout as is common with books of this era. Have not had any luck to speak researching this though it does appear tp predate other copies by several decades. Calling this very scarce is more than fair.

Very Good. 4 232 pp. Title in red and black with etched royal cypher. 120 copper engraved commemorative medals by Adriaen Schoonebeeck. Added engraved title page signed by Romeyn de Hooghe dated 1691. 12 full-page etchings signed by de Hooghe that depict festival constructions for Williams entry into The Hague in 1691 and also portraits of William and Mary among other emblems. Engraved headpiece and initial decoration on dedication leaf signed by Schoonebeck followed by full-page engraved leaf honoring Chevalier with depictions of Atlas Aristotle and other muses. Full contemporary vellum blind-stamped with central lozenge design; very slight foxing or staining engravings fresh; covers slightly bowed. Initialled bookplate P.M.G to front pastedown. First Edition in French of this biography of William III of England extensively illustrated to show important events in the monarchs life. This work was privately printed for Nicolas Chevalier who was a hobbyist and coin collector. A large proportion of Dutch print-making at the end of the 17th century focused on William III. An almost categorical personality cult surrounded the stadtholder-king. Among the print-makers Romeyn de Hooghe 1645-1708 was an important and prolific late Dutch Baroque engraver and caricaturist. He is best known for his political caricatures of Louis XIV and propagandistic prints supporting William of Orange. De Hooghes 12 etchings of triumphal arches for this work are adaptations of plates in the works by Bidloo and Tronchin de Breuil published in 1691 and 1692. Adriaen Schoonebeek c. 1657- 1705 is often mentioned because of his appearance as witness for the prosecution in a court case against de Hooghe that formed the climax of a slanderous exchange of pamphets between Orangists and members of the Amsterdam faction in 1690. These animosities did not prevent re- employment of both engravers in executing plates for this Nicolas Chevaliers 1692 illustrated volume on numismatics and the life of King William. Rare.
