Rotterdam, 1605. Facsimile 1969. Edition limited to 300 handnumbered copies. Magnificent writing-book, not only with regard to the specific period it represents, but also in relationship to the entire history of calligraphy as an art: van den Velde is rightly credited with having introduced and perfected a new trend in Dutch calligraphy.
