Unique collection of delicate washed pen and ink drawings by Jacobus Buijs (or Buys), one of the most important artists of the new generation of Dutch book illustrators of the second half of the 18th century. The drawings served as designs for illustrations in many works, including Jacobus Kok's encyclopaedic Vaderlandsch woorde…nboek, 35 vols. (Amsterdam, J. Kok & J. Allart, 1780-1796), and the play by L.S. Mercier, De valsche vriend, of de zegepraal der huwelijksliefde, translated from the French Le faux ami, apparently published as volume 2 in the three-volume series Het zedelyk tooneel (Amsterdam, A. Kroese, 1778-1779), though not described as such in the book itself.l E. de la Fontaine Verwey, Illustr. letterk. werken XVIIIe eeuw, pp. 83 ff.; L.
