Jacob Aertsz. (I) Colom's 1639 "Kaart van het Graafschap Holland en Utrecht" is a detailed map of the waterways and islands surrounding the Dutch city of Harlingen. The intricate engraving shows a network of inlets, channels, and sandbanks that were crucial for shipping and trade in the region. The map includes annotations in Dutch, making it a valuable historical resource for those studying maritime history and cartography. The artwork, now part of the Rijksmuseum collection, is a testament to the skillful artistry of the Dutch Golden Age.
