EDITORS COMMENTS
This map print, entitled "Map of Eierland and West-Vlieland," dates back to the 17th century, showcasing the intricate details of the Dutch islands of Eierland and West-Vlieland. The map, created by an anonymous artist, is believed to have been produced between 1688 and the end of the century. At the top right corner, the scale of the map is indicated as 800 rods, Rijnlantsche size. This measurement system was widely used in the Netherlands during the 17th century. The title of the map is inscribed at the bottom right corner. The map is a remarkable example of the cartographic knowledge and artistic skills of the time. It was likely produced using a combination of techniques, including ink and watercolor paint. The map's creator is unknown, but it is believed that Abram Bleuse and Adriaen van Twuijver may have contributed to its production. The map is rich in detail, depicting the islands' topography, waterways, and settlements. The magnetic north is indicated by a compass rose, and the map's orientation is towards the north. The map's colors and intricate details add to its aesthetic appeal, making it a valuable addition to any collection of historical maps or Dutch art. This map is a testament to the rich maritime heritage of the Netherlands and Europe during the 17th century. It can be found in the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam, one of the world's leading museums for art and history. The map is a fascinating glimpse into the past, providing insights into the cartographic knowledge and artistic skills of the time.
