Description: Here we see Gulliver with representations of his travels. In the foreground we see Gulliver kneeling. A giant from Brobdingnag sits on top of a podium. The giant holds the floating island of Laputa over his head, with Gulliver’s ship in front of him. A Houyhnhnm and a yahoo are inside of the podium. In Gulliver’s hands is a Lilliputian. This image also appears in the 1843 Krabbe edition.
