Interdisciplinary study of Christopher Plantin's pioneering role in the production and distribution of books with engraved and etched illustrations in sixteenth-century Europe. The authors place Plantin's work within the broader context of the European book trade of the late sixteenth century and Antwerp's political, economic, cultural and religious history.
