"Het Beloofde Landt Canaan door Wandelt van onsen Salichmaecker Iesu Christo, neffens syne Apostelen", Stoopendaal, Daniel

This graphic map of Israel is enriched with Biblical scenes. A compass rose orients the map with northeast in the top right corner. The sea is filled with ships and the route of St. Paul to Rome is shown. A pair of cartouches at top are supported by cherubs. The large decorative title cartouche at bottom is surrounded by a dramatic scene of the resurrected Christ ascending to Heaven while Roman soldiers draw back in fright. This is the second state with D. Stoopendaal's imprint and number 2 at bottom right. Dutch text on verso.
