About the Item

A map of Mechelen, known as Malines in French and Mechlin in English, a city and municipality in the province of Antwerp in the Flemish Region of Belgium. A birds-eye view plan of the city, it illustrates every street, building, and landmark, including the city's fortified walls which were ordered to be destroyed in 1781 by Joseph II, Holy Roman Emperor. Inscribed with the title in plate to the lower edge, 'Mechlin, or Malines the Capital of one of the ten Provinces of the Netherlands in Brabant an Archbishopric, situated upon the Dyle'. Engraved for 'Mr Tindal's Continuation of Mr Rapin's 'History of England'' with maps by Richard William Seale and John Basire and first published in 1727. This was a continuation of 'L'Histoire d'Angleterre' by Paul de Rapin-Thoyras (1661-1725) which was printed at the Hague in 1724. On laid.
