Description: .: 6. Mechelen, no printer, men vintse te Coop, tot Mechelen by de Heeren Proviseurs van het selve broederschap ( Broederschap van de zeven weeën van Maria, s.d. (1692) (approbatio), in-12°, (16)nn pp + 148 pp, with full page copper engraving (including the frontispiece). Bound in contemporary full leather, binding with minor damage, interior fine, without any provenance indication. See Bibliotheca Cath. Neerl. Impressa nr. 15129. This illustrated edition has the peculiarity that the copper engraved plates are based on woodcut designs. This shows clearly in the finely engraved plates which render the crudely wood engraved images. This is exceptionaly and goes contrary to the normal procedure in early book illustration where mostly copper engraved designs would have been copied in wood cut for the cheaper editions. .
