Antique Print of the Nes or Realeneiland by Stoopendaal (1719)

Description: Antique print titled 'De Nes of het Reaalen-Eiland (..)'. This print shows the Nes or Realeneiland or Huys te Nigtevecht, the estate of Mrs. Sara Reaal as seen towards Vreeland. Originates from 'De Zegepraalende Vecht, vertoonende verscheidene Gesichten van Lustplaatsen, Heeren Huysen en dorpen, beginnen van Uitrecht en met Muyden besluytende' published in Amsterdam by Andries de Leth / Wed. Nicolaas Visscher, 1719. 

Artists and Engravers: Daniel Stoopendaal (Dutch) was active in Amsterdam from 1685 to 1713. Both Daniel and Bastiaan Stoopendaal made maps for the so-called Keur Bibles (published from 1666-1756). Most probably both were not related. Bastiaan worked mostly in the circle of Nicolaes Visscher. Daniel engraved topographical prints and maps.
