Le miroir des plus belles courtisannes de ce temps = Spiegel der alder-schoonste cortisanen deses tijts = Spiegel der allerschönsten Cortisannen diser Zeyt
A 1631 printed book of engraved oval portraits of fashionable courtesans, issued in French, Dutch and German editions and made by the engraver Crispijn van de Passe, probably published in Utrecht for its own author. The pictures are small black-and-white copperplate busts in oval frames, with lace ruffs, feathered hats and elaborate hairstyles, offering a designer clear period models for early seventeenth-century costume, collar and headwear shapes.
