The Masks
These variations on the Commedia dell'Arte theme from the beginning of the 17th century have been uploaded at full size, after removal of the library stamps. This is the whole set from the Biblioteca Casanatense via the Istituto Internazionale di Storia Economica e Sociale "F. Datini" database. I can't find much more information about the set, Gheyn or van Londerseel online.
Verbatim from the website: "20. B. I. 93, [Raccolta di stampe sec. XVII-XVIII]
editori Jacques Cherau, Assuerus van Londerseel - Calcografie: Jacques Bellange (incisore), Sebastien Leclerc (incisore), A.S. (incisore), Francesco Maggiotto (autore), Jacob de Gheyn II (incisore).
20. B. I. 93/176-183, 185 - [Maschere] - ed. Assuerus van Londerseel, fine XVI - inizi sec. XVII - Calcografie: Jacob de Gheyn II (incisore)
Incisione calcografica (acquaforte) - Tavole sciolte poste in album fattizio."
