Lyons: J. de Tournes, 1558. Arabesque title border, two headpieces, large opening initial and 136 woodcuts after Bernard Salomon 2 works in one volume, small 8° (144 x 95mm). (Lightly washed, upper margins of titles slightly cropped, preliminaries in second work also cut close affecting headpieces and top line of text.) Red morocco by Riviere, covers with outer and inner border of blind and gilt rules, acorn at inner corners, spine with raised bands and ruled divisions, two panels directly lettered, the rest with repeated acorn motif, gilt turn-ins and edges, red cloth chemise and slipcase. TWO PROFUSELY ILLUSTRATED WORKS WITH WOODCUTS AFTER BERNARD SALOMON The woodcuts are among the earliest assigned to Salomon (1508?-1561) and enable the attribution of other work to the artist. Another copy combining the same two works was owned by Fairfax Murray ( French , n° 429) who notes : 'There are 230 delicately executed woodcuts attributed to Bernard Salomon 94 in the first book and 136 in the second'. Brunet’s Supplement gives 134 as the latter number, remarking, ‘cette suite est fort jolie et fort recherchée’. Beneath each cut are four Latin verses. There is no preliminary matter to the first book, but the second contains a preface and verses by Borlyut. Mortimer, Harvard French 88 & 89; Brun p. 132 (note for Quadrins historiques de la Bible ); P. Sharratt, Bernard Salomon illustrateur lyonnais (Droz: 2005).
