= Nijhoff/ Van Hattum 11. "De Atlas van Fouquet is ongetwijfeld de fraaiste serie afbeeldingen die van Amsterdam bestaan. In afwijking van de vroeger verschenen series staat bij Fouquet het afbeelden van de schilderachtigste punten van de stad op den voorgrond. Hoewel zijn prenten bijna alle op de traditioneele wijze genoemd zijn naar de torens, de poorten, de kerken en de andere groote gebouwen die er op zijn voorgesteld, zijn zij echter zoo op te vatten, dat zij het stadsgedeelte weergeven, dat het genoemde gebouw omgeeft. Op die wijze verschaft de Atlas van Fouquet een wandeling door de straten en langs de grachten van het Amsterdam der XVIIIe eeuw, het Amsterdam dat nog in ongerept bezit was van haar monumentale gebouwen en huizen, en den stratenaanleg uit het bloeitijdperk; hierbij werd ook in het oog gehouden het zoo pittoreske straatbeeld dier dagen weer te geven."

= Tiele 42; Cat. NHSM p.136 and cf. Cox I, p.49 (ed. London, 1740): "This famous and unfortunate expedition, consisting at the start of eight ships, was sent under the command of George Anson at the beginning of the war with Spain, to harass the Spaniards on the western coast of South America. Seven ships were lost around Cape Horn and on the coast of Chile and out of 900 men who left England on board more than 600 perished. (...) The primary object of the expedition was not attained, but by the capture of the Manila Galleon near China, Anson and the surviving members of his crew reached England much the richer. (...) Walter's account of the voyage is a model of what such literature should be."
