Rathgeb, Jakob, Schickhardt, Heinrich, Cellius, Erhard [Hrsg.], Mästlin, Michael [Hrsg.], Ditzinger, Ludwig [Hrsg.], Paludanus, Bernard [Hrsg.], Mästlin, Michael [Bearb.], Paludanus, Bernard [Bearb.], Friedrich [Bearb.], Ditzinger, Ludwig [Ill.] · 1603 · 8 pictures

A 1603 German travel account edited by Erhard Cellius and Michael Mästlin, published in Tübingen-area Württemberg circles, recording two journeys by Jakob Rathgeb and Heinrich Schickhardt for a learned German readership. The pictures are woodcut heraldic and portrait plates: an ornate coat of arms with cherubs, a bearded duke in a ruff and armour within a laurel-and-lettered oval frame, and a sheet of small coats of arms arranged in rows beside large initial letters, suited to designers seeking Renaissance strapwork, heraldry layouts and framed portrait formats.
