This 1656 map, "Vestingplattegrond van Abbeville", depicts the city of Abbeville, France, with its surrounding fortifications and landscape. The artist, unknown, uses watercolor to color the map, with pink for the city, green for the fields, and blue for the river. This plan is a significant example of 17th century cartographic art and a valuable document for understanding Abbeville's urban development.
