Adrichem, Christian Kruik van (sold) (Christiano Adrichomio)
Christian Kruik van Adrichem (February 13, 1533 - June 20, 1585), alternatively known as Christianus Crucius Adrichomius was a Dutch theologian active in the second half of the 16th century. Adrichem was born in Delft of a wealthy family - at one point his father, Adriaen Claesz, was mayor of Delft. Adrichem was ordained in 1566. He served as the director of the Convent of St. Barbara in Delft until expelled by the Protestant Reformation. Fleeing the anti-Catholic sentiment of the Reformation, Adrichem reestablished himself in Cologne (Koln) where compiled various religious works including his important historical atlas, the Theatrum Terrae Sanctae et Biblicarum Historiarum. Adrichem's important atlas was published posthumously by his associate Gerardis Brunius in 1590. The work went through numerous editions and served as the foundation of most subsequent maps of the Holy Land well into the 18th century.

This is an elegant example of Christian van Adrichem's influential 1584 plan of the Biblical Jerusalem. It was included in his 1584 Theatrum Terrae Sanctae, a Biblical atlas intended to provide visual structure to Catholic catechism - not only to inform the religious scholar, but to provide the basis for a sort of 'virtual pilgrimage' to the holy sites of Jerusalem when actual travel there was, for most, utterly impossible.

An extraordinary and rare map, this is the 1662 Johannes Jansson and Georgius Hornius six sheet map of the Holy Land. Divided into six panels and oriented to the east, this map covers Israel or the Holy Land from the southern tip of the Dead Sea and Edom to the Golan Heights and modern-day Lebanon. This map is an expansion and enlargement of a smaller plan of the same general area issued by Christian van Adrichem around 1590. Jansson expanded and embellished Adrichem's map in order to illustrate the text composed by Georgius Hornius (George Horn) for volume six of his Novus Atlas, Accuratissimia Orbis Antiqui Delineatio. Consequently some refer to this map, which is as a whole untitled, as the 'Hornius Map.' As a whole this map is embellished with countless vignettes and other images drawn from Biblical tradition. The smoking ruins of Sodom and Gomorra appear in the Dead Sea, Jonas is drawn being devoured by the whale, Jesus is shown being tempted by Satan (for the third time) atop a mountain, etc. Each of the tribes of Israel are named and associated with their lands. Mountains and forests and shown in profile. (more details)
