This detailed map, titled "Kaart van de rivier de Eem (eerste deel)," was created by Thomas Doesburgh in 1692 and is currently housed in the Rijksmuseum. The map showcases the Eem river, a vital waterway in the Netherlands, and its surrounding terrain. The meticulous detail of the map's lines and annotations, alongside the decorative flourishes and coats of arms, points to a rich cartographic tradition, highlighting both the practical and aesthetic importance of maps in the 17th century.
