FIRST EDITION. Becanus' work celebrates the entry of Cardinal-Infante Ferdinand of Spain (1609-1641) as Governor in Ghent on January 18th, 1635 and as victor of the battle of Nördlingen, where the Catholic Imperial army won a great victory over the combined Protestant armies of Sweden and their German allies. The engraved plates show the entry processions with views of Ghent, scenes from a theatrical performance, allegorical floats, fireworks, and triumphal arches. A large folding bird's-eye view illustrates the battle of Nördlingen. "The decorations for this event, although less famous than those designed by Rubens for Ferdinand's Entry into Antwerp several months later, also celebrated the Prince's personal history, his ancestry, and military prowess"(Festivities: Ceremonies and Celebrations in Western Europe 1500-1790, Brown University, March 1979, number 38.)
