= Rare, this print not traced. Not in New Hollstein (Van der Borcht or Bol). Hollstein (Julius Goltzius), lists 8 prints after Bol with landscapes with scenes from the Old and New Testament, divided in two series, each numbered 1 to 4 and published by Janssonius (Hollstein 1-8). Not specified by Hollstein which scenes and without images. New Hollstein (Bol) lists those 8 prints as no.11-14, together with the 4 prints (rejected as Bol) R22-25. Those last 4 prints are numbered 1 to 4, so they are probably the same as the 4 (of 8) as described in Hollstein (Julius Goltzius). However, the engravings in New Hollstein, Bol 11-14, are only partly numbered in the edition by Janssonius (with NH 15 numbered "5"!). So it is not certain if these 4 are part of the 8 listed under Julius Goltzius. There is an engraving in the Rijksmuseum by Goltzius after Bol: Abraham kneeling for the three angels, numbered "2"(according to the museum, Hollstein (Julius Goltzius) 2). This print is for some reason omitted from the New Hollstein (Bol). Although the name of van der Borcht is on our print, the style is very similar to the print in the Rijksmuseum and the 8 prints in the New Hollstein (11-14 and Rejected prints 22-25). So they are probably all by the same artist and part of an (unfinished?) series of biblical scenes. Cf. New Hollstein (Hans Bol) 11-14 and Hollstein (Julius Goltzius) 1-8.
