Acquaforte misure: mm 291 x 212 Teologo, umanista e poeta francese. Studiò inizialmente legge e poi divenne pastore a Ginevra. Scrisse numerosi libri di storie e teologia alcuni di questi accompagnati da incisioni. In questa stampa viene raffigurato, in maniera satirica, il sinodo svoltosi nella città di Dordrecht in Olanda per risolvere le questioni sorte tra calvinisti e arminiani. All'interno di una grande ed ampia sala, troviamo disposti, seduti su file di bachi a più livelli, personaggi con in capo delle corna di diavolo o di toro simbolo di superbia. Alle loro spalle sul muro la scritta Congregatio Taurorum in vaccis populorum (Salmo 68:31) cioè congresso di tori feroci e vitelli del popolo. Solo il gruppo in fondo sulla sinistra non ha corna, sono i rappresentanti degli Stati Generali. Al centro seduti intono ad un tavolo su cui si vedono fogli e libri i coordinatori del Sinodo, a capo tavola il loro presidente Bogerman. Sulla parete di fondo della sala un grande camino al cui interno due diavoletti agitano i soffietti come per alimentare la discordia. Sopra il camino un'enorme civetta simbolo di ignoranza e due scimmie simbolo di impudenza dominano la scena. Sul pavimento è incisa una lunga scritta, si tratta di un attacco feroce alle vicende avvenute durante il sinodo tra i rappresentanti della chiesa. Visti di spalle due uomini stanno entrando nella sala, al loro fianco sono incisi i loro nomi e la carica di legati: Mr Brunier e Mr Dumolin. Oltre l'immagine inciso "Simon Goulartius Invent. et. Excud". Un esemplare di questo foglio è conservato al Rijksmuseum. (FMH 1345) Bella impressione. Ottimo stato di conservazione, eccetto una doppia piega nella carta al centro che non compromette la lettura del foglio. Esemplare rifiato alla battuta del rame. Al verso timbro della collezione dello scultore americano Leonard Basckin (New Brunswick 1922-Leeds, Massachusetts 2000) e la data 1964, anno in cui la stampa è entrata nella collezione.

8vo., First Edition, with a full-page plan; strongly bound in contemporary red buckram, backstrip lettered in gilt, uncut, ORIGINAL WRAPPERS PRESERVED, a near fine copy. A PRESENTATION COPY FROM SIR JOHN (LATER VISCOUNT) SIMON TO MAJOR A W H JAMES WITH THE FORMER'S SIGNED HOLOGRAPH INSCRIPTION ON FRONT WRAPPER. A FINE AND RELEVANT A.L.s FROM SIMON TO JAMES IS MOUNTED ON REAR ENDPAPER. The letter is written from HQ, Royal Flying Corps, where Simon served briefly on Lord Trenchard's staff during WWI. Major James has noted the context in a neat hand on inner wrapper: 'Immediately after the trial John Simon came out to HQ, RFC, France, and was attached under instruction to my squadron, No. 6, at Abeele. I had known Simon when I was at Cambridge, and he and Ernest Burge had a hunting box at Huntingdon. John Simon, whom I got to know very well later, in the same mess at HQ. RFC, and later in the H. of C [House of Commons] was intrigued to meet someone who knew his client, Malcolm, well. John Allsebrook Simon, KC, 1st Viscount Simon (1873-1954) is one of only three British politicians to have served as Home Secretary, Foreign Secretary [under Churchill] and Chancellor of the Exchequer. In the sensational trial of Lieutenant [Douglas] Malcolm of the Royal Artillery for the murder of Anton Baumberg [Count de Borch], Simon led the Defence. After the summing-up by the Judge [Justice McCardie] the Jury retired and after twenty-five minutes' absence returned a verdict of 'Not Guilty'. RARE, AND IN THIS CASE CONTEXTUALLY UNIQUE.
