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.

In 1631 Johann Ludwig Gottfried, inh...
