Basel, Bärenreiter-Verlag, 1963-1972
Three volumes (25 cm), I (1963): 115 pp., [55] leaves of plates. II (1966): xx, 245 pp., 409 illustrations. III (1972): 189 pp., 104 illustrations. Uniform publisher’s cloth, pictorial dust jackets. - Catalogue raisonné of the drawings and paintings, single-sheet prints and “minor” book illustrations of Matthaeus Merian the Elder (1593-1650). In the last volume, nos. 1-56 describe the books published by Merian containing illustrations produced by himself, as well as those by other artists; nos. 57a-108 describe books illustrated with etchings by Merian and published by others; nos. 109-37 describe books issued by Merian’s heirs as including the works by Merian, but which are not now considered to contain any illustrations by him or his followers. The final two chapters are devoted to books listed in Merian’s catalogues which Wuthrich has been unable to trace, and books containing illustrations with doubtful attributions to Merian. Two further volumes treating “Die großen Buchpublikationen” (biblical, historical, and topographical illustrations) have since been published (Hamburg: Hoffmann und Campe, 1993-1996). ¶ Very good, unmarked copies.
