EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite map print, titled "Rhenolandia, Amstelandia et circumjacentia aliquot territoria: cum aggeribus omnibus terminisq. suis" (Rhineland and Amstelland, and some adjacent territories: with all the fortifications and their limits), dates back to approximately 1675 and is a masterpiece from the workshop of renowned Dutch cartographer Nicolaes Visscher. The map depicts the regions of Rijnland and Amstelland, located in the western part of the Netherlands, with the North Sea coast on the right and the west at the top. The title is proudly displayed in a cartouche carried by putti, accompanied by the coat of arms and helmet above a dedication to Johannes Hudde. The map is rich in detail, showcasing the intricacies of the geographical features, including the winding course of the Amstel River, the shores of the Zuiderzee, and the various towns and cities, such as Leiden and Haarlem. The map is adorned with heraldic shields of arms, adding an elegant and historic touch. The map is beautifully executed, with a vibrant and rich color palette, evoking the charm of the 17th century. The scale is indicated in both Dutch and French miles, just below the putto holding a pair of compasses, with a scale of 1:180,000. The meticulous detail and artistic execution make this map a valuable addition to any collection of historic cartography or European art.
