520 2 # $a No publication-date is given. R. Colas suggests 'vers 1610'. Plate 22 is signed 'Ioos de Bosscher excudebat'; and Colas states that there is a variant title-plate in which the imprint has the name of 'Joos de Bosscher' in place of that of Michiel Colÿn. Colas also states that this work is a reprint of a book published in 1581, Omnium pene Europæ, Asiæ, Africæ et Americæ gentium habitus, elegantissime aeri incisi: quibus accedunt Romani pontificis, Cardinalium, Episcoporum, una cum omnium ordinum monachorum et religiosorum habitu cura Abrah. de Bruin (of which, he states, there are also issues carrying the title, Omnium pene Europae, Asiae, Aphricae et Americae gentium habitus. habits de diverses nations de l'Europe, Asie, Afrique et Amérique. Abraham de Bruÿn excudit ... Michel Colyn, ex.). In the present issue pl. 24 still carries the date of 1580 and the divisional title-plate that of 1581; but pl. 14 bis of the second group carries the date of 1586. The name of Michiel Colyn on the divisional title-plate appears to be a cancel. Colas describes the 1581 editions as having title-plates in Latin or in French and Latin, and the divisional title-plate in French and Latin; whereas in the present edition the title-plate is in Latin, French and German and the divisional title-plate in Latin, French and Dutch.
