The voyages & travels of Sir John Mandevile, Knight, wherein is set down the way to the Holy Land, and to Hierusalem, as also to the lands of the great Caan, and of Prestor John, to Inde, and divers other countries, together with many and strange marvels therein
A 1684 London edition of Sir John Mandeville's travel narrative, describing the route to the Holy Land and Jerusalem and the lands of the Great Khan and Prester John, aimed at a general reading public. The four woodcut pictures are small, boxed, black-line scenes of standing figures in simple dress set against stylised ground, water and architecture, with rough, hand-cut lines and a textured tinted paper behind them that a designer could borrow for quaint, medieval-style graphics.
