Copper engraving, original period coloring subsequently retouched, richly painted cartouche in the upper left corner. 495 x 577 mm. Seutter, after an apprenticeship with Homann in Nuremberg, moved to Augsburg around 1720 and established his own business, surpassing his master in terms of aesthetic appeal: his prints are always characterized by brilliant colors and elaborate cartouches. The copy is in good condition with some visible reinforcement work on the reverse.
