"Plattegrond van Amsterdam met stadsgezicht" is a detailed map of Amsterdam, created by Pieter Hendricksz. Schut, possibly between 1662 and 1720. The map, now in the Rijksmuseum, is an elaborate depiction of the city, showcasing its canals, streets, and buildings. Despite Schut dying in 1660, this map is attributed to him as it follows his style and the use of decorative flourishes in the map's borders. This is a striking example of 17th-century Dutch cartography and urban planning.
