Abstract The Cabinet, the first of three activity areas in the Europe 1600–1815 Galleries, contains some of the most remarkable seventeenth-century European items from the V&A’s collections, revealing pan-European collecting practices from 1600 to 1720 and exploring that period’s fascination with the interplay between artifice and nature. A number of historical written and visual sources informed the selection of objects and established how they might be physically arranged. This article explains the sources and processes involved, and the precedence accorded to Samuel Quiccheberg’s Inscriptiones vel Tituli Theatri Amplissimi, published in Munich in 1565.

内阁的制作第一部分：塞缪尔·奎切伯格的“模范物品和特殊图像”

摘要 内阁是 1600 年至 1815 年欧洲画廊三个活动区中的第一个，收藏了 V&A 收藏中一些最引人注目的 17 世纪欧洲物品，揭示了 1600 年至 1720 年的泛欧收藏实践，并探索了那个时期对技巧与自然之间的相互作用。许多历史书面和视觉资源为选择对象提供了信息，并确定了它们的物理排列方式。本文解释了所涉及的来源和过程，以及 Samuel Quiccheberg 于 1565 年在慕尼黑出版的 Inscriptiones vel Tituli Theatri Amplissimi 的优先顺序。
