Gerhardi Ernesti de Franckenau, equit. danic. Bibliotheca hispanica historico-genealogico-heraldica

Franckenau, Gerhardus Ernestus de, 1676-1749, Weidmann, Moritz Georg, 1686-1743 · 1724 · Lipsiae : Sumptibus Maur. Georgii Weidmanni ... · 4 pictures

A 1724 heraldic and genealogical bibliography of Spanish works, published in Leipzig by Moritz Georg Weidmann under the name of Gerhard Ernst von Franckenau, a Danish knight. Its pictures are engraved vignettes, a coat of arms with a seated allegorical figure, an oval portrait medallion, a winged trumpeting Fame, and a flower garland, showing how Baroque ornament framed learned printed matter; a designer could take from them the vocabulary of cartouches, banners and fleurons.
