See also RCIN 722142.a.

An example of the right hand plate (map and view of the fleets with triton and sea horses, and lacking the left hand plate, is in the Rijksmuseum (RP-P-0B-81.457).

A very similar design, published in 1643 by Claes Jansz Visscher II, comprises the central map flanked on the left, by the same scene as RCIN 722142.b but with differences in the detail of the foreground design, and with a different scene, with captured, chained Spanish naval officers on the right (Rijksmuseum RP-P-0B-81.461). The accompanying letterpress text to this print in the Rijksmuseum example is also very similar in layout and content to RCIN 722142.d but has a different setting.
