This hand-colored map by Floris Balthasarsz van Berckenrode depicts the journey of Maurice of Nassau, Prince of Orange, through Brabant in 1602. It was created between 1612 and 1624, shortly after the artist’s death in 1616. This detailed map illustrates the various cities and regions of Brabant, and highlights Maurice's route with a red line. The map, now housed in the Rijksmuseum, provides historical insight into the military campaigns of the Dutch Golden Age.
