Important work describing the voyages from Noa's time up to 1632.
For the etching by Rembrandt: New Hollstein 123 ii/ii; White/ Boon 111/II; H. de la Fontaine Verwey, Uit de wereld van het boek II, p.130-131; Ackley 84. "Dat Elias Herckmans's boek vol rijmelarij over de zeevaart bij bibliofielen zeer in trek is, is niet de verdienste van deze auteur zelf. Het wordt veroorzaakt door het feit dat een van de zeventien [sic] illustraties van de hand van Rembrandt is. Hoogstwaarschijnlijk is het een zuiver historische afbeelding en stelt ze het 'scheepje van Fortuin' voor, tenminste zo is men de prent in de achttiende eeuw gaan noemen. Haar naam ontleent de afbeelding aan de naakte vrouwenfiguur, de godin Fortuna, die met haar adem als gunstige wind het zeil van de boot vult. (...) De figuur in het midden is of Augustus of Antonius. Op de achtergrond is de tweekoppige god Janus." (exhib. cat. Goed gezien. Tien eeuwen wetenschap in handschrift en druk, no.33 (Leyden U.B.,1987)). The allegorical etching, showing the "Ship of Fortune", is one of the 6 etchings Rembrandt Van Rijn made for 3 bookpublications. For Basse: see Hollstein I, 49-65. SEE ILLUSTRATION PLATE XCV.
