About this Item

Amsterdam, Mattys Pool, 1727. 28 x 20 cm. Halflinnen omslag (19e eeuw) met 85 losse bladen, alle uitgevoerd in diepdruk: overzicht van de inhoud, twee titelpagina's, opdrachtpagina, portret en levensbeschrijving van Bossuit, portret en levensbeschrijving van Graat, en 77 van de 89 gravures naar Bossuits sculpturen. (Enkele bladen bevatten twee prenten, de nummering is 9-103). Omslag versleten. De prenten zijn in goede staat, sommige iets verbruind aan de buitenste randen, maar niet in het beeld. Helaas is de inhoud incompleet, de volgende twaalf prenten ontbreken: 17, 18, 29, 32, 41, 43, 52, 64, 78, 80, 95 en 97. Francis van Bossuit (Brussel 1635 - Amsterdam 1692) was een virtuoos beeldhouwer en ivoorsnijder uit het hoogtij van de barok. Tot 1680 werkte hij in Rome, waar hij talloze voorbeelden vond in de klassieke beeldhouwkunst, daarna ging hij naar Amsterdam. In deze uitgave is een klein honderdtal van zijn werken zeer kundig gereproduceerd naar ontwerpen van de interieurschilder Barent Graat, gegraveerd door diens schoonzoon, de kunsthandelaar Matthijs Pool (1676-1740).
