This detailed map of the Duchy of Brabant was created by Pieter van der Keere between 1617 and 1622, and shows the geographical features of the region, including rivers and cities. The map is adorned with a decorative cartouche featuring the coat of arms of Brabant, and includes views of Mechelen, Antwerp and the Palace on the Koudenberg in Brussels. It is now housed in the Rijksmuseum and reflects the intricate cartographic skills of the early 17th century.
