De levens-beschryvingen der Nederlandsche konst-schilders en konst-schilderessen, met een uytbreyding over de schilder-konst der ouden
A Dutch-language biographical dictionary of Netherlandish painters, written by Jacob Campo Weyerman and issued at The Hague in 1729 with engraved plates after Jacobus Houbraken and others, aimed at collectors, connoisseurs and the art trade. Full-page plates stack numbered painters' portraits inside frames, ovals and hanging canvases within engraved borders, and chapter headpieces set a putto in a rocaille cartouche wreathed in leaves and masks: sources for portrait frames, scrollwork surrounds and small emblematic vignettes.
