This fine engraving created with meticulous detail and great precision shows a remarkable copy from The Small Passion, created by the talented Abraham Waesberge also known as Waesberghe or Waesbergen, who was also art dealer in Holland, flourished around 1630-1640 and engraved prints himself, mentioned by Kramm. The other artist who collaborated on the creation of the prints was Jacob Aertsz Colom (1600-1673), an Amsterdam engraver, printer, bookseller and cartographer (RKD artists ID: 413988), he possessed an excellent sense of entrepreneurship that put him in competition with the then only nautical chart maker in Amsterdam Willem Janszoon Blaeu. Abraham Waesberge (RKD artists ID: 422143), was an engraver, publisher and art dealer born in Rotterdam (1602), active in that city between 1630 and 1640. After that date he also moved his activity and production to Amsterdam. The illustration on laid paper with chain lines and slightly age toned is well engraved with intact margins, great contrast and definition, one of the best productions of Dutch illustrators of the early 1600s. To complete the documentation, the photo of the title of the work is also published with the name of the artists who created the prints.
