Chronijcke van de hertoghen van Brabant : waer in hun leuen, oorloghen, ende acten perfectelijk beschreuen zijn ...
A 1606 Dutch chronicle of the dukes of Brabant, printed in Antwerp by Jan Baptista Vrients and produced by engravers including Jan Collaert and Otto van Veen, written for readers interested in the region's rulers and history. Its pictures are full-length engraved portraits of armoured dukes set in arched niches or before curtains and columns, each with a heraldic lion shield, helmet and sword, offering a designer clear models for historical costume, heraldry and formal stiff-figure poses.
