Circa 1686 Daniel Stoopendaal Map: Biblical Sites from Paradise to Canaan
This circa 1686 hand-colored map by Daniel Stoopendaal, titled "De Gelegentheyt van 't Paradys en 't Landt Canaan," beautifully illustrates the Middle East, extending from the Mediterranean to the Persian Gulf.
The map features numerous Biblical locations, such as the Garden of Eden, the wanderings of the Children of Israel, and the story of Jonas and the whale.
It is adorned with elaborate decorations, including a banner-style title cartouche and four corner vignettes depicting scenes from Genesis: Paradise, the creation of Adam and Eve, Eve offering the apple, and their expulsion from Eden.
The bottom center showcases a dramatic portrayal of Noah's Ark. Measuring 18.3 inches wide by 11.9 inches high, this first state map includes Dutch text on the reverse and is in good condition, with a crisp impression, light toning along the centerfold, and a small chip in the bottom margin.
