Pascha, Jan · 1563 · Tot Louen : Bij Hieronymum Welle ... · 62 pictures

A devotional guide to spiritual pilgrimage to the Holy Land, Jerusalem, Bethlehem and the Jordan, written by Jan Pascha and printed at Leuven in 1563 for Christian readers planning or imagining the journey. Its woodcuts are small, dense and black-on-cream, showing crowds, a skeletal figure with a cross-topped scene, and Christ with haloed saints; a designer might borrow their hatched line work and crowded groupings for period-style graphics.
