Antique Map: Estuaries of the Somme & Bresle, Northern France & Netherlands
By Jacobus Harrewijn
Located in Langweer, NL
Antique Map: Les Embouchures de la Somme et de Bresle (Estuaries of the Somme and Bresle)
This beautifully detailed antique map, titled *Les Embouchures de la Somme et de Bresle*, showcases the coastline of northern France, specifically focusing on the estuaries of the Somme and Bresle rivers. Part of a larger series of maps that collectively depict a significant portion of the Southern Netherlands, this engraving captures the intricate geography of the region with remarkable precision.
The map provides a detailed view of the coastal towns, rivers, and natural features that define the area. Notable locations such as Dieppe and St. Valery are highlighted, reflecting their historical significance as key port towns and hubs of trade and navigation. The surrounding rivers and estuaries are meticulously rendered, showing the natural waterways that played a crucial role in the development of the region.
This engraving is enhanced by the inclusion of charming decorative elements, such as sailing ships in the surrounding waters, adding a sense of movement and life to the map. The inclusion of forests and topographical details in the inland areas demonstrates the mapmaker's commitment to providing a comprehensive representation of the region.
The map's historical context lies in its origin as part of a series that aimed to document the territories of the Southern Netherlands and northern France during a period of significant political and geographical change in Europe. Such maps were invaluable tools for navigation, trade, and territorial administration, making them both functional and artistic.
Keywords: antique map of Northern France, Somme estuary map, Bresle estuary, Dieppe historical map, Southern Netherlands cartography, French coastline map, 17th-century map engraving, historical geography, decorative antique map, rare European maps, maritime history.
