Hand-colored copperplate map.
16 x 20.5 inches (40.5 x 52 cm).
Amsterdam, c. 1700:
Based on Visscher’s 1659 map, the Levant is shown from Damascus in the north to the Egyptian coast in the south. Various Biblical scenes are depicted, such as a smoking Mount Sinai and Solomon’s ships embarking from the shores of Eilat in search of gold. Depicted below the map is the Encampment of the Israelites and the Temple vessels.
