This 1713 engraving by an anonymous artist offers a detailed, bird's-eye view of Amsterdam, "Plattegrond van Amsterdam met de verschillende vergrotingen". The intricate details of the city's canals and buildings, including the fortifications and surrounding areas, showcase the importance of Amsterdam as a maritime center during the Dutch Golden Age. The map, now in the Rijksmuseum, stands as a testament to the craftsmanship and cartographic skill of the time.
