This 1714 engraving by Dutch artist Jan Goeree, titled *Drie figuren uit het Bijbelse Palestina*, depicts three figures in a scene seemingly inspired by the Holy Land. The engraving is a title page for an illustrated work, likely related to archaeology, featuring a monument to Hadrianus Relandi’s *Palaestina*. The scene is detailed and depicts a group of figures around the monument, including a reclining figure of the Jordan River, a seated woman, and a young boy. The engraving features a mixture of classical and biblical iconography, demonstrating the artist's interest in historical and religious themes. This small-scale engraving, measuring 178 x 135 mm, is currently held in the Rijksmuseum.
