1857 Map of Netherlands, Belgium & Luxembourg – Justus Perthes Engraving
Antique map titled "Niederlande, Belgien und Luxemburg," published by Justus Perthes in Gotha in 1857. This finely engraved and hand-colored map presents a comprehensive view of the Low Countries in the mid-19th century, capturing the evolving political landscape of the Netherlands, the recently independent Kingdom of Belgium (1830), and the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg.
The map details all provincial divisions with delicate hand-applied color, highlighting major cities such as Amsterdam, Brussels, Antwerp, The Hague, Ghent, Liège, and Luxembourg. The Zuiderzee and North Sea coastlines are prominently featured, along with rivers, canals, roads, and early railways that shaped commerce and mobility in the region.
Topographical relief is rendered with precision, and a clear legend at the left provides information on scale and symbols. Each territory—Dutch, Belgian, and Luxembourgish—is bordered in color, reflecting its independent governance at the time. This edition reflects the period following Belgian independence and before major modern state boundary changes.
This piece is ideal for collectors of European history, Benelux cartography, or 19th-century political geography. The map stands out both for its geographic accuracy and its decorative appeal, suitable for framing and display.

1812 "United States of Nth America -- Carte des Etats-Unis De L'Amerique Septentrionale" Two-Sheet Map by Tardieu
This attractive map, published in Paris in 1812, is one of the most rare large format maps from the period. It features a view of the East Coast of the U.S. from Maryland to just below South Carolina. Additionally, Ellicott’s plan for the City of Washington D.C. is included at the top right and an illustration of Niagara Falls is shown at the bottom right with a description in both French and English. This extremely detailed map not only depicts the mountainous regions of the southeastern U.S., but also includes names of regions, rivers, and towns.
Based on the first state of Arrowsmith’s 4-sheet map of the United States, this map is completely engraved by Tardieu in Paris and showcases high quality engravings. This detailed map of the recently independent United States includes one of the largest and earliest examples of the Ellicott plan of Washington DC.
The artist, Pierre François Tardieu (PF Tardieu) was a very well-known map engraver, geographer, and illustrator. Awarded a bronze medal by King Louis-Phillipe for the accuracy and beauty of his map-making, Tardieu produced many fine works including maps of Louisiana...
