Kaart van Schieland en Krimpenerwaard 1797

Anna Catharina Brouwer's "Kaart van Schieland en Krimpenerwaard" (1797) is a detailed map of the Schieland and Krimpenerwaard regions in the Netherlands. The map, part of the Rijksmuseum collection, uses a combination of colors and labels to outline the various towns, villages, and waterways in the area. The map's decorative flourishes, compass rose, and scale bar enhance its aesthetic appeal and historical significance. This piece showcases Brouwer's contribution to cartography and provides valuable insights into the geographical layout of the Netherlands during the late 18th century.
