Flanders and Zeeland

This handsome copper engraved map details the coastline from Calais to Zeeland, and east to Brussels and Leuven. Beautifully engraved and highly detailed, the map shows forests, roads and canals, hundreds of tiny villages and numerous fortified towns including Brussels, Gent and Antwerp. Fishing banks are shown off the coast. The map is adorned with the coat of arms for Flanders and a beautiful title cartouche with a pair of cherub “soldiers.” Dedicated to Dr. Ionni d’Hondt, cousin of Henricus.
