1805 Bizarre Macabre Illustrated Prayer Book German Martin von Cochem Capuchin
A rare early, 19th-century German devotional book from Capuchin theologian Martin von Cochem. Cochem was an important 17th-century monk and preacher who composed dozens of works in response to critical attacks on the Catholic Church. One of his best-known works was ‘Goldener Himmelsschlussel’ – a prayer book designed to offer hope and comfort to the hurting. The title itself includes the phrase ‘powerful and useful’ and aimed to save lost and hurting souls from Purgatory.
This rare and relatively unknown 1805 edition features charming, but somewhat bizarre engravings of saints and worship through prayer throughout; bound in beautiful red Moroccan leather.
Item number: #2710
Price: $499
