Antique Map of Northwestern Germany, Netherlands & Belgium – 1858
Detailed 19th-century engraved map titled "Nordwestliches Deutschland, Kgr. der Niederlande, Kgr. Belgien" (Northwestern Germany, Kingdom of the Netherlands, Kingdom of Belgium), published by Justus Perthes in Gotha in 1858. This map highlights the regions of Prussia, Hanover, Oldenburg, Westphalia, and surrounding areas, along with the neighboring Low Countries.
The map depicts the dense political landscape of mid-19th-century northwestern Europe, with state and provincial boundaries outlined in hand-applied colors. The Netherlands is bordered in red, while Belgium is bordered in yellow, reflecting the political boundaries established after Belgian independence in 1830. Key cities such as Amsterdam, Brussels, Antwerp, Cologne, Bremen, and Münster are clearly marked, along with an intricate network of towns, rivers, and roads.
Topographical details are finely engraved, particularly in regions like the Ardennes and the hilly areas of Westphalia and Hesse. The Rhine River and its tributaries are clearly charted, showing their importance for trade and travel during this period. Smaller states such as Lippe, Waldeck, and Nassau are individually marked, illustrating the fragmented political structure of pre-unification Germany.
This map is both a decorative and historically significant piece, capturing the geopolitical boundaries of northwestern Europe before German unification (1871) and during a time of industrial expansion and modernization.
