About the Item
Antique Map of Zuid-Holland & Utrecht – Sleeswijk Atlas, 1914
This antique map of Zuid-Holland and Utrecht was published in 1914 in the well-known Sleeswijk Atlas, a Dutch school atlas widely used for geography education in the early 20th century. It captures two of the most important provinces in the Netherlands, presenting a wealth of detail on the urban, rural, and infrastructural landscape during a pivotal period in Dutch history.
The map extends from the North Sea coast with Scheveningen and Katwijk eastwards across the province of Utrecht, and from Amsterdam in the north to Dordrecht and the river delta in the south. Major cities including The Hague, Rotterdam, Utrecht, Leiden, and Gouda are prominently marked, while an intricate web of smaller towns and villages fills the surrounding landscape. The extensive railway system is shown in red, illustrating the rapid expansion of transportation networks at the beginning of the 20th century. Waterways, rivers, canals, and polders are carefully delineated, reflecting the ongoing Dutch mastery of hydraulic engineering and land reclamation.
The legend (“Verklaring”) at upper left provides symbols for tramways, provincial roads, municipal boundaries, and water defenses, giving the map both practical and educational value. With a scale of 1:400,000, the sheet combines clarity and precision, qualities that made the Sleeswijk Atlas a staple in Dutch schools for decades. Printed in soft colors with clean, legible typography, it is characteristic of the elegant cartography of early 20th-century educational maps.
Published by A. Sleeswijk in Bussum and lithographed by J. Smulders & Co. in The Hague, this map represents the high standards of Dutch school cartography at the time. Today, it serves both as an attractive decorative item and as a document of regional history, offering insight into the provinces during the years just before the First World War.

Belgium and the Netherlands: A Hand-colored 17th Century Map by Visscher
By Nicolaus Visscher
Located in Alamo, CA
This is an original hand-colored 17th century map of Belgium by Nicolaus (Nicolas) Visscher II entitled "Belgium Foederatum emendate auctum et novissime editum", published in Amsterdam in 1678. The map shows the seven provinces comprising the Belgium federation or the Republic of the Seven United Netherlands or the Dutch Republic as it was also known. The republic was formed when an alliance of seven Dutch provinces in the Spanish Netherlands revolted against rule by Spain in 1579 (the Union of Utrecht) and declared their independence in 1581 (the Act of Abjuration). The seven provinces were Groningen, Frisia, Overijssel, Guelders, Utrecht, Holland and Zeeland. This was a predecessor state to the Netherlands and the first fully independent Dutch nation state. Amsterdam, Delft, Rouen, Utrecht, Brugge, Ghent, and Antwerp are all included on the map. A small inset map in the lower right depicts the course of the Maas River from Maastricht to Wessem. There is a decorative cartouche in the upper left corner and a distance scale cartouche in the lower right corner.
The map is presented in an attractive antiqued medium brown-colored wood frame with gold-colored inner and outer trim and a light tan-colored fabric mat. The frame measures 26.63" high by 30" wide by 0.75" deep. There is some darkening of the red areas in the map, presumably related to oxidation of the original iron containing pigment over time. There are also a few scattered spots. The map is otherwise in very good condition.
The Visscher family were one of the great cartographic families of the 17th century. Begun by Claes Jansz Visscher...
