About the Item
Antique print titled 'Bergen en Straat van Sang-Wan-Hab'. View of the mountains and strait of Sang Wan Hab, China.

Artists and Engravers: Jakob van der Schley (26th July 1715 - 12th February 1779), also known as Jan von Schley or Jacobus van Schley, was a Dutch engraver and draughtsman.
