The ''Emblemata of Zinne-werck'' is an emblem book, with text (in poetry and prose) by the Dutch poet Johan de Brune and engravings by Adriaen van de Venne. It was first published in Amsterdam in 1624〔Praz 86.〕 by Jan Evertsen Cloppenburgh and printed in Middelburg, Zeeland, by Hans van der Hellen. The (relatively expensive) book was printed in quarto size with copper engravings. A second edition, 1636, consisted of the unsold remains of the first edition (of which probably around 1,000 copies were printed) with minor changes in the first gathering and added gatherings at the end.〔Weij 112-14.〕 ==Content== Each of the 51 entries has a caption of one or two lines indicating the moral, followed by an engraving and an epigram (rhyming in couplets). This set of elements is followed by a prose explanation of varying length (up to 12 pages).〔Weij 112.〕 That there are prose explanations in the first place (and that some of them are so lengthy) could be, argues Els Stronks, because Brune had doubts about the use of images; he considered images to be ambiguous where text was stable and "has a greater potential than the visual arts". Stronks argues that this was characteristic of the attitudes of the Dutch Reformed Church of the time.〔Stronks 77-78.〕
