This blank sheet of paper, titled “Tekstblad gebruikt bij een kaart van Schenckenschans belegerd en ingenomen door Frederik Hendrik, 1635-1636,” is a significant historical artifact. Created in 1636 by Dutch cartographer Claes Jansz. Visscher, it was likely intended as a preparatory sheet for a map depicting the siege of Schenckenschans. The inscription "Schenckenschans" in Visscher's hand provides a glimpse into his meticulous process, highlighting his use of text in his mapmaking.
