Color Map of the Land of Judah Israel with the Division of the Land into Tribes, by J.B. Homann, Nuremberg, [1707]
Iudaea seu Palaestina … hodie dicta Terra Sancta prout olim in Duodecim Tribus divisa separatis ab invicem Regnis Iuda et Israel … collecta ex Tabulis Guil. Sansonij … a Joh. Baptista Homanno. Nuremberg, [1707].
Specifications: [1] leaf, paper. 56x49 cm. In a 80x71 cm. frame. Copper engraving with an original colored cartouche. Latin.
Unique Features: Map of the Land of Israel on both sides of the Jordan River with the division into tribes, by the map illustrator and publisher J.B. Homann. This map was printed in his first atlas in 1707, and was included in all his subsequent atlases. The map clearly shows his style as an expert engraver who pays attention to the minute details. The division of the Land into twelve tribes on this map is based on Biblical sources.
In the bottom right-hand corner are the figures of Moshe and Aharon looking at a map of the Jewish people's wanderings in the Sinai Desert and the figures of a pair of spies bearing a cluster of grapes on their shoulders. In the upper left hand corner is the figure of Moshe receiving the Tablets of the Covenant on Mount Sinai with figures of angels in the background.
