## Commentary

This engraving is the title page of a series of thirty-two plates. The title is written on a classical monument at centre, flanked by two female figures holding a crown. The series with the title &#39;Triomphes de l&#39;Eglise Militante&#39;, representing Christian martyrs under the reigns of several Roman emperors, was published by Jean Leclerc in Paris. It was a reworking in laterally reversed format of a 1585 Jesuit publication, which comprised 32 prints engraved by Giovanni Battista de&#39; Cavalieri depicting in graphic detail the martyrdoms of various saints.
