In 1620 Johannes Janssonius (Jan Janssen) (1588-1664), bookseller and printer to the king of Sweden, known among other things for the atlases he printed with his father-in-law Jodocus Hondius, brought out a quadrilingual version of Vignola in his birthplace, Arnhem. He repeated the text published by Willem Jansz ( 1617 , 1619 ) after amending and modernizing it. The plates were re-engraved and for the most part inverted (Vignola’s portrait, the plate of the five orders, the orders).
Crispijn van de Pas reprinted it in 1629 in Utrecht, replacing the German version with an English version.
