500 $aFirst published in Antwerp 1651, with title: Mortalium nobilitas iconibus ab Holbeino delineatis et a W. Hollar exsculptis expressa. See Pennington, who writes that the 2nd ed. published by Nicolas Pitau in Paris appeared ca. 1680 (despite Pitau's death in 1671, as reported in Thieme-Becker, Allgemeines Künstlerlexikon, Bénézit).
500 $aPrints bear initials HB.i. (probably for "Holbein invenit") and WH ("Wenceslaus Hollar"), corresponding to Pennington's 2nd state. Bible verse in Latin beneath each image.
500 $aEach print (plate mark ca. 75 x 55 mm.) enclosed within one of three etched borders (plate marks ca. 115 x 93 mm.). The borders are printed from separate plates, and are signed by Hollar after Abraham van Diepenbeeck beneath the bottom edge line. Pitau added his name and address to the border described under Pennington 233A. This occurs in 7 prints in the present copy, "Van Merle" rather than "Pitau" appears with the same address in 2 more (a variant not noted in Pennington), and in one print with this border the name has been cut away. Ten prints have border 233B, with van Diebenbeeck and Hollar's names alone in center of bottom margin, and the ten remaining have 233C, with van Diebenbeeck and Hollar's names together with date 1651.
