Published for the first time in 1574 They were often reprinted, one can count fourteen editions in twenty-five years the sixteenth century. That of 1583, Paris, Marnef is very beautiful, and the figures on which it is decorated with wood, are a good artist. This is one of the revised edition by the author, from 1580. Dedication to Augustin de Thou, Jean de La Guesle and Barnabas Brisson, Etampes is dated April 15, 1580, Y Note to the reader is of the same year. This opinion contains some curious details on Alciat commentators and writers who published in the sixteenth century, books of emblems. The introductory parts contain also a scholar. Discusses the origin of symbols, emblems and currencies, as well as praise from Mignaut and his work, Greek and Latin verses, signed by Nic. Gulonic, Regius Professor of Greek, P. Pineau de Vendome; East. Pasquier; Germain Audebert, Orleans, and Nic. Quatresols. The emblems are discussed followed by all Greek passages that are in Alciat, literally translated by Nic. Gulonic; a table methodically emblems, a homage to the work of Alciat delivered by Mignaut Royal College of Burgundy in Paris in 1576 and finally a table of things and words contained in these comments. Bookstore is the trademark on the title, and that of the printer on the last page. " (from the Bulletin du Bibliophile, No. 529 - October 1856 - ex. Connected 30 en tan calf side. Techener the bookstore).
"This edition, one of the most complete, is enriched with figures engraved on wood for each emblem, very thin and very pretty." (Techener, Bibliographic Description of selected books of all kinds, vol. 1, No. 12688).

The woods are not worn. They remained anonymous but very well drawn (note that 3 of them wear as a mark of Double Cross of Lorraine - the double cross of Lorraine is the kind of engraver Pierre Lorraine Woeriot). Found at the end of the emblems of trees.
