Illustrations of last days of Christ and his resurrection. The full engraved text on the title reads: "Passio et resurrectio D.N. Jesu Christi. Edita et excusa ab Ad. Collaert. Devoto ac afflicto populo A. Collaert D.D." The date has been ascribed primarily from the binding, which seems contemporary with the one dated imprint in the volume.
