Deel van een kaart van het Hoogheemraadschap van Rijnland, met Den Haag en omgeving 1615

This detailed map of The Hague and surrounding area was drawn by Floris Balthasarsz van Berckenrode in 1615. The map depicts the city of The Hague (SCHRAVENHAGE) and its surrounding countryside, with various canals, rivers, and polders labeled in Dutch. The map's meticulous detail, with individual buildings and roads highlighted, makes it an important historical document for understanding the urban planning and landscape of the region in the early 17th century. The map, now housed in the Rijksmuseum, is a testament to the cartographic skills of the Dutch Golden Age.
