De aeternitate considerationes : coram Sermo. vtriusq[ue] Bavariae Duce, S.R.I. Archidapifero, Electore, Maximiliano et Sermâ. coniuge Elisabetha explicatae : eisdem inscriptae et dedicatae
A 1631 Latin devotional book on eternity by Jeremias Drexel, printed in Cologne by Cornelius ab Egmondt, with engravings by the Sadeler brothers, dedicated to Duke Maximilian of Bavaria and his wife Elisabeth. Its emblematic plates pair Latin mottoes with allegorical figures, skeletons, angels and clock-like wheels. A designer can borrow its compact framed plate layouts, scroll-shaped captions and dense hatched engraving to suggest memento mori and cosmic time.
