IXXUSTRIUM GA1XIAE BELGICAE 8CRIPTO- RUM ICONES ET ELOGI (1604) 58 engravings In 1604 Philips Galle published a fourth series of por traits. This publication focused exclusively on Dutch and Flemish scholars, to a large extent illustrating Aubert Le Mire's Ehgia Ulustrium Belgii scriptorum published in Antwerp 1602. Galle reused 17 portraits from his earlier series: 11 from the 1572-edition (of which five had orig inally been engraved for the 15&7-edidon), five from the 1587-edltions and the second version ofTorrentius* por trait from the 1595-edition. In some cases the earlier vers es were maintained, in other cases they were replaced by new inscriptions. Besides Le Mire's verses, poems by sev eral other Flemish authors were used for specific portraits. All the earlier engravings were Included in new states, as at the top of every portrait the age and the year of death were added. The verso of die tide page Is blank. On the recto of the next sheet is an introduction to the book, set in letter press and most probably written by Aubert Le Mire: "CANDIDO LECTORI,/ SEU SPECTATORI S./ Illustrium GaUIae Belgicae nostrae Scriptorum Elo / gia nuper dedi, mi Lector seu Spectator. Quern com-/ turn nostrum et si levern ac temiem, cum permultis/ gratum esse anima adverterern, coepi et Imagines eo-/ rumdem variis e locis studiose fideliterque conquirere. Eius in-/ dustriae specimen hie vides; quae, nisi fallor, Optimo cuiv- is gra-/ ta erit pariter acceptaque. AfHcit enim excitatque rnlrI6.ce/ amnios, oculosque pascit atque oblectat, vivas eorum effigies,/ quorum scripta atque ingenij monu- menta legendo admiramur,/ velut in theatro seu pegmate, longo ordine positas, coram intue-/ ri. Romanorum sane vetus institutum fuit, bene de Repub. me-/ ritorum imag ines in templis dedicare; Imperatornm strenuo-/ rumque Ducum icones, inter signa, militibus praeferre; ceratas/ maiorum effigies longa serie in atriis collocare. Niminim ut his/ velut ealcaribus ad virtutis avitae aemulationem compelleren-/ tur. Sic et eruditorum hominum Imagines istae, in aes cura no-/ stra msculptae, non delectabunt modo, sed ad imkandum quo-/ que, ut spero, in suo quemque genere, vehementer inflamma-/ bunt. Ceterum non aetatis ordinem secuti sumus, sed faculta-/ turn seu disciplmarum. Inibi et digmtatum ratio aliqua est ha-/ bita, et similes. Quo ad ems fieri potuit, velut in satura, fere con-/ iunximus.Vale } et aequi bom consule." Appendix 2 D 231 "Greetings to the sincere reader or viewer Dear reader or viewer, not so long ago I have edited eulo gies of illustrious authors of our Netherlands. Since I noticed that this undertaking of mine, trivial and insignif icant as it may be, gave satisfaction to a large number of people, I also assiduously and conscientiously started to collect their images from a variety of sources. Here you can see the results of this activity. If I am not mistaken, this will be just as pleasing and rewarding to aU outstand ing men. For It affects and excites the mind to the utmost, and it entertains and delights die eyes to see the lifelike portraits of those men whose writings and monuments of their talent we admire when reading, their features placed in a long series, like in a theatre or on the stage. The Romans indeed had the custom to ded icate images of those who had been of use to the state in their sanctuaries, to carry the portraits of the comman ders-in-chief among the banners In front of the soldiers, and to place waxen portraits of their forefathers together In long rows in their atrium. Of course these were brought together as stimuli to improve on the ancestral virtue. Similarly these images of learned men, engraved In copper with all our care, will not only delight, but will also to a large extent inspire, as i hope, to imitate everyone in his own domain. Besides, we have not fol lowed a chronological order, but a division regarding die skills and disciplines. Whatever has been possible in this respect, we have usually united like In a miscellany Farewell, and judge fair and just." (translated from the Latin by Jan Bloemendal) On the verso of this page follow a table of contents and the approbatio by the Antwerp canon Egbert van Spidiout (Zutphen ?? - Antwerp 1627), all set in letterpress; "Vidit, et laudavit Egbertus Spitholdius Canonicus et Plebanus/ Antverplensis 21.maj,Anno 1604." (two lines).Then fol low 52 numbered portraits. The portraits were engraved In the Galle workshop, an identification of the engraver(s) has not been possible. In 1608 Galle's son Theodoor published a revised and enlarged edition of the Blustrium scriptorum icones, dedi cated to Albert of Austria, viceroy of the Southern Netherlands. Six portraits were added:Thomas a Kempis, Gilbert Fusch (first used in the 1567-edirion) sjoost Lips, Christophe Plantin (not the 1572-version by Philips Galle, but an engraving by Hendrick Goltzius), Marrinus Rythovius and Petrus Simons.
