About This Item
[2] pp., [60] engraved ll.Very rare second separate edition of a series of sixty views of ruins, castles and noble residences, drawn mostly by Roeland Roghman (Rochman), engraved by Jacob Schynvoet and first published in 1711. Most are in the province of Holland, but some come from other parts of the Netherlands. Each view has a panel at the foot with the title, often on a scroll or drapery. Schynvoet signed most with only his initials, but one that he drew himself he signed, "J. Schynvoet ad Vivum del. et fec." One caption indicates that the building no longer existed when the plate was engraved. The views are bound in alphabetical order by the name of the house or the place where it is located, as indicated by the list of plates, but fifteen of the views are lettered A-P at lower right, indicating a different order.These 60 views appeared earlier in Ludolf Smids, Schatkamer der Nederlandse Oudheden (Amsterdam 1711), by the same publisher, and in its later editions. The first separate publication of the plates appeared in 1715 at Amsterdam, with no letterpress other than a title-page and a list of the plates, and appears to be extremely rare (1 copy in STCN). The present second edition is nearly as rare (4 copies in STCN).Binding slightly warped and soiled, otherwise in very good condition.l STCN (4 copies); cf. W.Th. Kloek, De kasteeltekeningen van Roelant Roghman II; Tiele, Volkenkunde 1011 (1711 Schatkamer); not in Bartsch; Hollstein.
