A German emblem book of 1721, published in Leipzig, pairing a hundred sonnets on the Sunday and feast-day Gospels and the Acts of the Apostles with two hundred engraved biblical scenes for Lutheran devotional reading. Each plate sets two oval scenes side by side, one from the Old Testament and one from the New, with a small emblem medallion between them, German verse captions in engraved cartouches, and corner figures of angels, suns and skulls; useful for paired roundel layouts, banderole and cartouche frames, and crowd and interior scenes in fine line engraving.
