Description
A very nice depiction of Chateau Chenonceaux near Tours, France within the foreground is a dead lion, surrounded by rabbits. With a verse in two languages underneath the picture.
By 1625 the collection included 362 which had increased to 800 by the end of the century when the last edition was published.
Among the master engravers that contributed to this series, usually working from earlier sources, were Matthäus Merian, Sebastian Furck, Christian Stimmer and Meisner himself.
Each engraving is distinguished by a motto (usually in Latin) above the image and emblematic verses (usually in Latin and German) beneath. These mottos and verses are intended to relate to the history or culture of the city depicted, although the connection can be somewhat cryptic. It is interesting to note that topographical and other details in these engravings are often more precise than many engravings of the era made on plates several times this size.
Belovacium comitatus.
Early map centered north of Paris. With Latin text on verso. Engraved by Petrus Kaerius. Shortly after the publication of big folio-atlases the need was apparently felt for a smaller sized atlas, one that would be handier and, above all, cheaper. Joh. Cloppenburgh published in 1630 a atlas based on Mercator's pocket map, but in a slightly larger size. He published a Latin text edition in 1632.

[Another Dutch fleet reaches Lima].
In 1624 a heavily armed Dutch fleet sailed from the Juan Fernandez Islands to Lima. The leader of the fleet, Jacob l’Hermite, was in such poor health that he had to hand over command to Admiral Jacobson. The fleet anchored outside the harbour near the island of San Lorenzo (‘I. de Lima’). The port was full of Spanish ships and was too well protected for a direct confrontation so, on the night of 11th May, the Dutch carried out a daring and devious plan. In 1631 Johann Ludwig Gottfried, inh...

[The bloody battle at Chupas] / [Francesco Pizzaro is killed].
Two engravings. [492] Even before Pizarro’s death, a new royal governor, Vaca de Castro, was on his way to settle the turmoil in Peru. He refused to accept Almagro the younger, when he heard he had appointed himself the new governor and summoned his troops for battle. They were later joined by Alonso de Alvarado and by other Pizarrists. This culminated in a bloody battle at Chupas in 1542, near the city of Ayacucho. Many men on both sides died, before Almagro the younger, fled to Cuzco. He was...
