ADRICHOM, CHRISTIAN
Ierusalem et Suburbia Eius.
Double-page hand-colored engraved map.
22. x 30.5 inches (56 x 77.5 cm).
Cologne, 1584:
A fascinating, large town plan of Jerusalem drawn as a pictorial map. Contains sites and scenes of varying Biblical and Second Commonwealth periods. An astonishing two hundred and seventy captions identify various places or events mentioned by Biblical and historical sources. Christian Adrichom (1533-1585) was a Dutch priest whose expertise in Josephus and writings of pilgrims to the Holy Land made him well-suited to issue this Jerusalem town plan.
