Baalde, Amsterdam, 1770. This is in fact an early Dutch encyclopaedia. Artists and Engravers: The author of this work is Egbert Buys. Egbert Buys (ca. 1725 - 1769; but probably ca. 1775) started his career as the author of Den Algemeene spectator (Amsterdam, J, Haffmann,1749). After having been accused of maltreatment of his wife and having caused several scandals, he left for England where he stayed for more than five years. Returned in Amsterdam he published a much enlarged re-edition of the famous English-Dutch dictionary of Sewel in 1766. He continued his linguistic work with the publication of a New and complete dictionary of terms of art; Nieuw en volkomen konstwoordenboek in 2 vols. (Amsterdam, 1768), followed in the next year by the first volume of our encyclopedia, which was to be completed with the 10th vol. in 1778. Apart from its importance as a typical 18th-century encyclopedia in the spirit of Diderot's Encyclopedie , the work is still valued for its lexicographical and linguistic contents. In Japan the encyclopedia became also one of the most used Rangaku books. Engraver: C.J. de Huyser. Subject: Plate LXXIV: Subjects: 1. Eryngium, Kruisdistel.
