Illustrated by 18 leaves of plates signed by Wenceslas Hollar, including 9 double page, and by 3 text figures. Decorated by head and tailpiece vignettes and by initials. The pubtacation of the Monasticon, a history of the religious orders and their establishments, spanned nearly two decades, with the first volume, the Monasticon Anglicanum being published in 1655 followed by Monastici Anglicani Volumen Alterum in 1661; the Volumen Secundus and Volumen Tertium followed in 1673 thus completing the work. This volume covers Augustinian canons, Hospitallers and Templars, Premonstratensians, Gilbertines and Trinitarians, etc. It also includes the additions to Vol. I and has coverage of France, Scotland and Ireland. William Dugdale (1605-86), renowned Warwickshire antiquary, royalist official and herald, collaborated with his fellow antiquary, Roger Dodsworth (1585-1654) in the first two volumes. The fine plates are by Wenceslaus Hollar (1607-1677) who was born in Prague and came to England in 1637. Prolific and varied in his output, Hollar's architectural drawings of cathedrals are known to be mathematically exact as well as being decorative. (ESTC R211977. Wing D2486).
