A rare playing card of Brussels

A miniature view featuring stylised figures of a Belgian man and woman standing before a prospect of Brussles. A German text underneath describes them, explaing that they are like the Germans, except for those under Spanish rule. This plate comes from an unidentified pack of educational playing cards, although this example has not been backed with card but bound in a volume. As each suit would be printed from one plate, it would have been trimmed close to the image, so needed new margins before binding. Based on the cards we have seen we believe the pack followed the same format at the English pack by Henry Winstanley of c.1676, with the four suits being Europe, Africa, Asia and America.
