This is a Drawing. It was created by Jan van der Straet, called Stradanus. It is dated ca. 1596-99 and we acquired it in 1901. Its medium is recto: pen and brown ink, brush and black wash over black chalk on laid paper verso: pen and brown ink on paper. It is a part of the Drawings, Prints, and Graphic Design department.
Binding Evidence: Thirteen irregularly spaced stitching holes run along the right margin of the sheet when viewing the recto. Blank space along that same margin suggests that the sheet was bound into a sketchbook when the drawings were made.
It is credited Museum purchase through gift of various donors.
