TERENTIUS. De ses comedien. Verduytst door H. Zwaerdecroon. Rotterdam, I. Naeranus, 1648, (8), 475 pp. W. engr. front. (bound after ti.). 12°. Cont. overlapping vellum w. manuscr. title on spine. NOTE:Very good copy, with old owner's initials "L v L" in calligraphed cartouche on verso title-p. and with owner's entry "Cs. Cl. Callenbach Ao. 4de m: 1e dag 1818" on upper pastedown. This must be Cornelis Carel Callenbach (1803-1873), reformed preacher with the Nickname "De Profeet van de Veluwe", who was 15 years old when he acquired the book.

W. 10 handcold. lithogr. plates. 4°. (O)wrps., uncut. -- (17). NOTE:Complete set with continuations of one of the most important Dutch works on lepidoptera with together 610 plates in contemporary handcolouring. Its really marvellously executed plates are the culminating point of entomological illustration. The publication of this work which according to Nissen probably started as early as 1728, stopped two hundred years later, when in 1928 the author of the third series, A. Brants, deceased after having completed only the first ten parts of the first volume. The famous publishing house Sepp & Zoon was a firm which excercised the utmost care in producing colour-plate books of outstanding quality. In the present case Sepp was the author as well as the publisher. "First series started by Christiaan Andreas Sepp together with his son Jan Christiaan (1739-1811) published in issues and in the format after the model chosen by Roesel von Rosenhof; Sepp followed his own path for the descriptions of butterflies and their illustrations. It has become the most important work on Dutch lepidoptera" (Landwehr). - Cobres I, 381: "Ein Werk ohne seines gleichen, in der ungemein sauberen Ausführung, daher höchst schätzbar". - Complete sets are extremely rare.
