1750ref. 19580Amsterdam 1750. Twelve pen and ink wash drawings each ca. 8 x 6.5 cm in subtle shades of grey and sepia. All 12 drawings mounted on a single contemporary stiff paper support 44 x 61 cm neatly arranged in three rows of four each with a border of lines drawn around it in ink. A contemporary pencil inscription below the lower right drawing reads "S. Fokke Amsterdam 1712-1784". Another in a later hand in the lower right corner of the support reads "S. Fokke". A set of drawings by Simon Fokke 1712-1784 made as models for the illustrations in J.F. Martinet's Alle de werken van Flavius Josephus Amsterdam 1783-1787. The 12 pen and ink wash drawings vividly depict Old Testament scenes very beautifully drawn and so subtly washed in a rich pattern of greys and sepia that the spaces left blank seem to radiate fire and sunlight. The engravings made from these drawings are in reverse and have 2 scenes on each plate.Simon Fokke was one of the most important artists of the second generation of 18th century book illustrators. According to E. de La Fontaine Verwey he was a spontaneous and very gifted draughtsman and an expressive designer who sometimes even engraved a plate without first drawing a model.A fine set.l Poortman 54; cf.

(f. 89 numéroté par erreur "94"; 103 par "113", 175 par "135";), Veau olive du XIXe siècle, dos à nerfs et fleuronné, Rarissime seconde édition de ce recueil d'anecdotes merveilleuses. L'édition originale, parue chez le même éditeur en 1600, ne comptait que 155 feuillets : cette dernière est fort rare, mais celle-ci l'est encore plus*. Simon Goulart (1543-1628) a rassemblé ici de nombreux événements épars concernant son époque, relevés au gré de ses lectures et élevés au rang d'exempla chrétiens. Le pasteur protestant procède ainsi pour les faits de son temps comme il l'avait fait pour son interprétation de Plutarque : tendre à orienter la lecture dans le sens de la christianisation. Chaque histoire qu'il relate est en effet interprétée moralement, de manière à traduire la manifestation de la justice de Dieu. Les Histoires admirables de Goulart ont été publiées au fur et à mesure à partir de 1600 : les éditions suivantes s'enrichiront de plusieurs tomes et seront publiées sous le titre de Trésor d'histoires admirables... Marge de tête de la page de titre courte. Ex-libris gravé de la bibliothèque de Georges Massoulard. * Un exemplaire se trouve à la Studienbibliothek de Dillingen en Allemagne. La bibliothèque de Montauban semble en conserver un autre, dépourvu de page de titre (collation semblable); un autre, à la Houghton Library (Harvard) est très incomplet (HOLLIS 990056520420203941).

1664ref. ABC_49305Amsterdam: Jacobus van der Fuyck 1664. Disbound loosely inserted in 20th-century plain brown paper wrappers. 4to. With a woodcut vignette on the title page and 2 decorated woodcut initials. Rare second edition under a different title of an eyewitness report of the dramatic shipwreck of the Arnhem a Dutch East Indiaman built in 1654 for the VOC. The report was written by Simon van den Kerkhoven a religious comforter to the sick Siecken-trooster on board and one of the shipwreck's survivors. The "ziekentrooster" was a religious office within the Dutch Protestant church in the 16th- to 20th centuries. Generally the person fulfilling its duty was not an official member of the clergy but when in service of the major trading companies VOC and WIC they received a special status which permitted them to perform clerical duties like administering the sacraments.The account of the shipwreck of the Arnhem was first published in Middelburg by Jacques Fierens in 1663 under the title: Historisch verhael der wonderlike ende seer zeldsame voor-vallen den gene bejegent die met het retour-schip Aernhem van Batavia na het vaderland verreist zyn den 23 decem. 1661. The present second edition claims on the title page that the name of the author is Johannes van Kerckhoven this appears to be a mistake as both the first edition the present preface and the signature at the end of the account in the present pamphlet mention Simon van den Kerkhoven. Another difference between the two editions can be found in the preliminaries: the dedication to the directors of the Zeeland chamber of the VOC is replaced by a rhymed preface in Dutch titled and signed Aen den leser door Simon van den Kerckhoven van Middelburgh; secken-trooster.On 23 December 1661 the Dutch East Indiaman Arnhem left Batavia in the Dutch East Indies now Jakarta Indonesia and set sail for the Low Countries together with 6 other ships under the command of the Dutch Admiral Arnold de Vlamingh van Oudtshoorn 1618-1662. In February 1662 on their way to Cape of Good Hope the fleet was caught in a storm and was scattered. Three ships disappeared without a trace while the Arnhem ran aground on the Cargados Carajos shoals in the Indian Ocean. Most of the crew managed to leave the ship in a small boat carrying 12 and a larger vessel carrying about 100 both headed for Mauritius many died on that journey and once back ashore the group further diminished and scattered in their attempt to survive. The surviving crew were able to leave Mauritius in small groups by boarding ships calling at the victualing station on the island. Curiously the surviving crew members of the Arnhem are now presumed to have been the last people to have seen live dodos.One of the survivors Dutch sailor Andries Stokram published the first report of this shipwreck in May 1663 in which the officers were blamed for the ship's sinking. They were also held responsible for putting men overboard from the lifeboat. Another survivor the Dutch bookkeeper Johan van Hal refuted these accusations in his report which was also published in 1663. In this same year Van den Kerkhovens report appeared in which he supported the charges of Stokram and held the officers responsible.The paper wrapper is damaged along the fold of the spine internally occasionally slightly browned.
