Eeuwigduurende liefdes almanak : zinnebeeldig, volgens den algemeenen almanaks-trant, de wisselvalligheden der minnaeren, die in alle liefde-jaeren voorvallen, aenwyzende
A Dutch emblem book of 1721, issued under the pseudonyms Philokalus and Philomúsus with the fictitious imprint "Te Cyprus" for Leiden readers, casting the course of love as a perpetual almanac with captioned stages such as "Laetste Quartier der Liefde." The plates are small copperplate panels in ruled frames, each holding a single heart shaded in dense parallel hatching so that light and shadow fall across it like lunar phases, with Dutch letterpress captions above and below.
