BOCK, Hieronymus (1498-1554). Verae atque ad vivum expressae Imagines omnium herbarum, fruticum, et arborum, quarum nomenclaturam … Eigentliche und Warhafftige abbildung unnd Contrafactur aller Kreuter, Stauden, Hecken, unnd Beum … Strassburg: Wendel Rihel, 1532. A "picture-book edition" with plant names taken from the huge "New Kreutterbuch", the herbal first published with illustrations in 1546 which made Bock, alongside Fuchs and Brunfels, one of "The German Fathers of Botany." This was a more portable aide-memorie for the herbalist in the field; the pictures, commissioned from David Kandel, are highly naturalistic and accurate. Kandel for most part based his woodcuts on those of Fuchs and Brunfels, but some one hundred are entirely original. 4to (198 x 155 mm). Woodcut portrait of author by David Kandel on verso of title-page, over 560 woodcut illustrations (mostly full-page). (Title-page light browned and partially loose). 18th-century English calf (joints and corners worn.) Provenance : George Spencer Churchill, Marquess of Blandford, later 5th Duke of Marlborough (1766-1840; sale, Evans, White Knights Library, 7-19 June 1819) to; Richard Heber (1773-1833; stamp on front free endpaper, with purchase note: “White Knights Sale 1819”). Brunet I:1023; Graesse I: 458; Nissen BBI 184; Pritzel; 980. BMC/STC German p. 131.
