Emblemata Florentii Schoonhovii I.C. Goudani, partim moralia partim etiam civilia : cum latiori eorundem ejusdem auctoris intepretatione : accedunt et alia quaedam poëmatia in alijs poëmatum suorum libris non contenta
Emblemata by Florens Schoonhoven, a Dutch emblem book printed in Amsterdam in 1648 by Joannes Janssonius, with engravings after Crispijn van de Passe for a learned readership seeking moral and civic lessons. The engraved plates pair a small scene with a moral, and a designer could draw on their compact narrative staging, clear silhouettes of figures in landscape, and the small framed format of each emblem picture.
