About the Item

Title: 'Carte Routière du Royaume des Pays-Bas comprenant la Hollande et la Belgique' **Publisher**: Eustache Hérisson **Publication Year**: 1829 This original antique map is a detailed depiction of the Netherlands and Belgium, dating back to 1829. As a 'Carte Routière', it focuses on the road networks of the region, providing valuable historical insights into the transportation and geographical understanding of the early 19th century. The map's delineation of the Kingdom of the Netherlands, including both Holland and Belgium, is particularly noteworthy as it represents the political geography of the period shortly before Belgium's independence in 1830. The map is sectionalised and laid on linen, a common practice in the 19th century for preserving and reinforcing maps, making them more durable and portable. This method of mounting also suggests that the map was intended for practical use, possibly by travelers or for educational purposes. **Artist and Publisher**: Eustache Hérisson, the publisher of this map, was a known figure in the cartographic and publishing world of the early 19th century. His work is characterized by attention to detail and accuracy, making this map not only a beautiful piece of art but also a reliable historical document. This map is a valuable historical artifact, offering insights into the geographical and political landscape of the Netherlands and Belgium during a significant period in their history. For collectors, historians, and enthusiasts of cartography, this map represents a fascinating intersection of art, history, and geography.

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...
