[Guicciardini ANTIQUELY COLOURED] Omnium Belgii sive Inferioris Germaniae

regionum descriptio. Ludovico Guicciardino, nobili Klorentino, authore, (...) insertis passim cum regionis cujusque tum [et] urbium quoque praecipuarum tabulis geographicis. (...) Arnhem, Johannes Janssonius, 1616. 4to, oblong (17.5 x 24.5 cm.), new vellum binding and endpapers, title with printer's mark in woodcut, (8)517,(11) pp.

This copy is complete with 106 prints of buildings, maps and views of cities, incl. the armorial chart of the Seventeen Provinces, flanked by William of Orange and Prince Maurice; all antiquely-coloured, in copper engraving. Pagination is sloppy and from p. 240 on rather incoherent. The map of the Netherlands (p. 369), the County of Namur (p. 486) and the view of Arras (p. 423) have demonstrably not been included in this copy. This edition counts 106 or 108 prints, not counting the armorial charts; however, variants are known. See also: Guicciardini Illustratus. H. Deys et al., p. 66-68. Book plate, name and deletion to title page, title page with restoration to top. Fine and characteristic contemporary colouring. Various insignificant stains. Very good copy. Scarce.
