This is a 1634 Brussels funeral book by Jean Puget de La Serre, with plates after Anthonis Sallaert and engravings by Cornelis Galle and Pieter de Jode, describing the catafalque erected for the Infanta Isabella Clara Eugenia. The pictures are hand-coloured engravings of a tomb with allegorical figures, a phoenix on a pyramid inscribed Non moritur moriendo, and a woodcut initial S woven with flowers, suggesting ornate memorial and mourning imagery for period-style graphic work.
