Antoni Sucquet ... Via vitae aeternae
A Counter-Reformation devotional book by Jesuit writer Antoine Sucquet, published in Antwerp in 1630 by Henricus Aertssius, with engravings by Boëce van Bolswert for lay Catholic readers on the Christian life and the afterlife. The pictures are dense black-and-white line engravings with crowded, layered scenes split between heaven above and a fiery underworld below, useful for designers studying allegorical crowding, radiant clouds, and emblematic symbols.
