More Information

An altogether stunning map of the Israel, Palestine, or the Holy Land. Issued in 1720 by David Funck of Nuremburg and geographically based upon Visscher's Map of 1659 and De Wit's Map of 1670. The shoreline runs from Sidon to Egypt along an East - West orientation. Divided according to the Tribes of Israel on both side of the River Jordan. Bottom center features a plan of the Temple of Solomon with the Ark of the Covenant featuring prominently. Moses and Jesus stand to either side of the plan. Title cartouche appears at the top of the map and features four cherubs, one of which holds the Tablets of Moses or the Ten Commandments. In the Dead Sea (Mare Mortuum) the destroyed cities of Sodom, Gamora, Sebim and Adama are depicted. At sea, 14 ships sail the Mediterranean. All text is in Latin.

What our customers are saying

★★★★★

I purchased an historic map, 16x24 inch. It is beautifully printed on heavy stock. The lettering, colors, and details of the map are crisp and easy to read. I am highly satisfied and would certainly purchase from Historic Pictoric again!

Ordered the Pan American Midway print to fit a lovely thrift-store gilded frame. I love showing off Buffalo's rich history and this is a pretty entertaining photo from 1901. Prompt shipping. Sturdy packaging.

I received my print within days of ordering, and it arrived well packed in a mailing tube. The print is high quality and exactly as advertised. I will use Historic Pictoric again in the future!

Excellent product. Great fidelity in reproduction of the original. Fine/minute details were sharp, colors were vibrant, and thickness, texture and overall feel and quality of the paper were excellent. Very satisfied with my purchase.

I have purchased six maps from Historic Pictoric. I find the quality to be excellent. Their customers service is also excellent. Outstanding! I called to exchange a few for different sizes and I could not have asked for a better experience.

The original map I ordered lacked some of the detail that I had hoped for, but they responded with several more map possibilities to choose from. Excellent service- a far step beyond what anyone expects from online purchases.

I am a owner of 5 maps from Historic Pictoric. From Okinawa, 1945, Europe 1940-1945 battle maps. Now they’re helping me with the battle of Gettysburg. These maps are so much superior to the map on a page in a book. I have framed two of them.
