Abraham VAN DIEPENBEECK

Linguae vitia & Remedia emblematice expressa per illustrem ac Rever

Linguae vitia & Remedia emblematice expressa per illustrem ac Rever
Apud Vidua Cnobbaert, Anvers 1652, 16° (10,5x7,5cm), (24 p.) 191 pp., bound.
Second edition after the first published in 1631. Beautiful engraved title and 94 emblematic full-page engravings by Andries Pauwels et Jacobus Neefs after Abraham van Diepenbeeck, friend and pupil of Peter Paul Rubens with whom he worked on several compositions. Plate on p.152 printed upside down. Beautifully executed and deeply contrasted engravings.
Complete with b4 (with an engraving) often missing. Blank A8 is missing, like most copies.
Later vellum binding with some notes in ink. A very small restoration to the verso of the half-title page.
The work is divided into two parts: one on the vices of speech (loquacity, deceit, insult, vulgarity, false testimony...) and the second with a remedy to each one. The quatrains are accompanied by beautiful emblems by Abraham Van Diepenbeeck with daily life scenes as well as numerous animals such as elephants, lions, birds, snakes, and plants.
A fine copy of this rare pocketbook of emblems, written by a Bruges Canon descendant of an illegitimate branch of the House of Burgundy.
