Description:This hand-coloured map of Palestine shows the territories of the twelve tribes of Israel with their cities, roads, mountains and rivers. The decorative, baroque cartouche in the upper left contains the title “Terra Sancta sive Palaestina...” and, in addition to the personification of arithmetic, depicts a soldier with a banner, symbols of enlightenment (divine triangle, sun, flame) and a small battle scene in the background. Below that is a compass rose with points. Another cartouche in the bottom right shows a small map of Israel, whose decorative frame leans against a stone that serves as a box for two mileage scales (German and French miles), with herbs, flowers and a fruit tree growing in between.
