Biography:

The engravings are by or after Luycken (Luyken), Elgier, Picart, Goeree,
and others. Not a full Bible in the
usual sense, Mortier presents the books of the Bible through his illustrations,
each accompanied by a short telling of the story in standard prose. The fine,
large engravings were produced by or from the works of several masters. Many
were later reproduced and used again in later and lesser bibles, in most case
significantly reduced.
