Author: Kok, Ina
Price: Not Available
ISBN: 9789061945000
Description: Houten: HES De Graaf, 2013. 4 vols. 32cm., hardcover, ca. 2250pp., 3800 illus. Summary: The aims of this publication are twofold. In the fi rst place it gives a complete census of the woodcuts in Dutch and Flemish incunabula, and a record of all places in which they appear. Both the book in which the woodcut (or series of woodcuts) appears for the first time and all repetitions of that woodcut before 1501 have been registered. In the second place a survey and analysis of the woodcuts used by each printer have been given. With this inventory Dr. Kok has developed a very accurate dating system for incunabula. Over 3800 different illustrations have been found in the incunabula printed in the Low Countries, which illustrate the history of the use of woodcuts – the different states, the different stages of wear and tear.
