[Autograph album of Johann Joachim Prack von Asch]

This late 16th and early 17th century liber amicorum or friendship book belonged to Johann Joachim Prack von Asch from Lüttach in Tyrol, who most likely was a diplomatic attaché from Vienna assigned to the Ottoman court in Constantinople under the directorship of Dr. Barthlmä Pezzen, who personally inscribed his autograph alongside his emblazoned arms in Prack's album. The entries span between 1587 and 1612 and are mainly penned in Istanbul, but also in other regions traversed by Prack during his diplomatic peregrinations, including Prague, Vienna, Würzburg, Cologne, Jülich, Düsseldorf, Scutari near Constantinople and Adrianople, today called Edirne, a city in Eastern Thrace, the northwestern part of Turkey

Among the autographs are those of Johann Wilhelm, Duke of Cleve, Jülich and Berg and his wife Jakobe of Baden, who was assassinated in 1597; the Duke's sister Princess Sibylle, Margravine of Burgau and her brother-in-law, Landgrave George Ludwig von Leutenberg, as well as the Duke's Master of Horse, Wilhelm von und zu Cortenbach. There is even a record of Prack's excursion to the fortress in Raab, Hungary on 25 August 1594, while it was besieged by the Turks
