Collaert, Adrian (1520-1567)

Florilegium ab Hadriano Collaert coelatum, & ă Philippo
Gallaeo editum. [Antwerp, 1590?] 25 numb. pl. (Brit.
Mus.; N. Y. Bot. Gard.)

The imprint: Antwerp, 1590? is supplied in the
Brit. Mus. Cat.; there is no trace of date or place
in the copy seen at N. Y. Bot. Gard. The title is
not in Cat. Bib. Nat. Paris. Sketches of Collaert
in Michaud, Biog. Univ. 9:250, and Larousse, Dict.
4:593,  mention several collections of plates by him,
but no &quot;Florilegium&quot;. Michaud, Biog. Univ. 16:357-
358, has sketch of Philippe Gallé (b.1537), publisher 
of this work, and there are a number of
titles under his name in Cat. Bib. Nat. Paris.

This is evidently the work mentioned by Seguier,
p.70, as in "Bib. S. Vict.", and by Pritzel, 2d ed.,
no.1803, as in "Bibl. Reg. Bruxellois". Brit. Mus.
copy of this work has colored plates. (MFW)
