This map, "Kaart van de kust van Zweden tussen Kalmar en Stockholm," was created by Joannes van (I) Doetechum between 1580 and 1583. The map features the Swedish coastline between Kalmar and Stockholm and shows the waters, islands, and other important geographic features of this region. The map is a depiction of the Baltic Sea coast with a compass rose and other nautical markings for navigation. Doetechum, a Dutch engraver and cartographer, was known for his detailed and accurate maps. This piece is a fine example of his work and is currently housed in the Rijksmuseum.
