‎Heraldic binding for two works, the first one of these being incomplete. «Insignia gentilitia». The first part of this heraldic work, in which Chiffeletius gives the descriptions of all coats of arms of the knights of the Toison d'Or. This volume contains the preliminaries, and chapter 1-5, plus the first two pages of chapter 6. The author, born in Besançon, was physician to the Spanish king Philippe II, who charged him to write the history of the "Toison d'Or". He was also first physician to the archiduchess Isabelle-Claire-Eugénie, souvereign of the Netherlands. «Parnassi bicipitis de pace Vaticinia». According to the title page the author of this work, Jodocus de Weerdt, was mayor of the city of Antwerp. However, in a recent study on mayors of Antwerp through the centuries, with complete list of names, Jodocus de Weerdt is not mentioned. This second work is dedicated to Alberto et Isabellae Clarae Eugeniae, to whom the author of the first work, Chiffletius, was first physician. Graesse VII/428. Olivier pl. 1228, nr. 2. Image disp.‎
