The album amicorum, a collection of autographs which became popular in early modern Europe, of the headmaster of the Amsterdam Grammar School Jacob Heyblocq (1623-1690). Heyblocq's is noted for containing one of the largest and most noteworthy number of contributions of any in his lifetime. The first volume of this set includes an introduction, transcriptions, paraphrases and notes to the second volume, which is a facsimile of the original album, including poetry, prose, and drawings. Also included in the first volume is a frontispiece illustration of Heyblocq, a brief biography with endnotes, and a list of abbreviations in the citations. The transcriptions are accompanied by black and white illustrations of the leaf of the original album, located in the Royal Library at The Hague.
