Rosarium, siue, Psalterium Beatae Virginis Mariae

Worthington, Thomas, 1549-1627 · 1602 · Antverpiae : Apud Ioannem Keerbergium · 27 pictures

Rosarium, siue, Psalterium Beatae Virginis Mariae is a 1602 Catholic devotional book printed in Antwerp by Ioannes Keerbergius, written by Thomas Worthington for readers meditating on the rosary. Its engraved plates, each framed with a mystery title and a Pater Noster caption, show scenes from Christ's and Mary's lives in small upright panels with figures in layered groups. A designer could take the compact framed-panel format, the clear figure grouping and the strong radiant light used to mark sacred moments.
