BIBLE. - Biblia, Das ist: Die gantze Schrifft, Altes und Neues Testaments. Nuremberg, Johann Andrea Endters, 1701. Large volume in folio, brown sow skin cold stamped on ais, multiple borders and wheels forming a large panel, large metal spandrels chiselled with the effigy of the Evangelists, Christ figure on metal in the center, clasps, spine with five nerves (contemporary binding). Very beautiful Lutheran Bible, illustrated with a full-length portrait of Martin Luther, 7 frontispiece titles, and a large number of wood vignettes in the text placed in ornate frames. Printing in gothic characters on two columns, title printed in black and red. Interesting baroque binding of the period decorated with chiselled metal parts, probably German. The first four and the last four sheets have been damaged by the attachment of the spandrels to the counterflats: the first ones are consolidated on the outer edge, and the last ones are missing letters and words. A few restorations to the binding, lower headdress levelled, one split jaw, lining and guards formerly renewed.
