This detailed map, titled "Kaart van de Noord-Franse kust, 1707," was created by Dutch cartographer Jacobus Harrewijn in 1707. It depicts the northern coast of France, focusing on the region around Dunkirk, Bergues, Furnes, Gravelines, Calais, and other surrounding towns. The map is highly detailed, with numerous place names and geographical features, including rivers, canals, and fortifications. The inclusion of ships along the coast suggests the map's potential use for navigation or military purposes. The map is a valuable historical document providing a glimpse into the cartographic practices of the 18th century.
