Opera nova contemplativa (2lock-book) Opera noua con- templatiua ... ,ca. 1530%?, (Card 3)
Title (;Antet?) and colophon ((Hv1‘"®°) within identical borders of white arabesques on a black ground; the New Testament illustrations, including cut of Madonna at end, have side borders (of trefoils, except cuts on ;DymTeete and Gyrytet?)
Gothie type, except (Ey)T? and (Hy)Tte, which are printed in round characters.
Four issues are described in Schreiber’s Manuel de l’amateur de la gravure ... au xv® siécle, v. 4 (1902) p. 105-113. This copy resembles issue e in having ;Ey; and ;Hvy printed in round characters, but differs in that the Madonna cut at end is not surrounded by a border, but has side borders only, apparently corresponding in this respect to Schreiber’s issue d.
