Title
Album amicorum of Jean le Clercq
Description
The album consists of approximately 98 unnumbered leaves, some blank, with 35 containing manuscript entries or illustrated miniatures, including 32 gouache paintings (one is on vellum), and one drawing in ink
An album amicorum belonging to Jean le Clercq of Tournai, a Belgian student at the University of Douai. The album features portraits and armorial devices of le Clercq's relations and friends, many with inscriptions in Latin or Greek. A dedication leaf with an eight-line Latin epigram dated "Douai MDLXXVI Johannis Le Clercq Tournacensis" is included at the end. The leaves have been sewn into an incomplete proof of the second edition of the French translation of La Métamorphose d'Ovide, Figurée (A Lyon : Par Ian de Tovrnes, 1564) with engravings by Bernard Salomon
Among the identified subjects appearing in the album are Stephanus Broelmanus Agrippensis, age 22 (1576); Girolamo Le Clercq, age 21 (1577); and Philippi Le Clercq, age 18 (1585). The portraits are accompanied by 32 heraldic paintings, some presented by female figures in contemporary dress or by angels. The families whose arms are depicted comprise a broad selection of the nobility and gentry of the Southern Netherlands, and include the arms of Nicolaas Rockox (ca. 1560-1640), mayor of Antwerp and patron of Peter Paul Rubens; and representatives of the families of de Gast, Bersaques, Defarnacques, de Stoppelaer, Liot, Bernard, de Glas, Pety, Bouzain, de Flameg, Bangouart, Wyt, Landau, Mozelle, and others
