This anonymous map, created sometime between 1633 and 1690, depicts the region of the Meierij of 's-Hertogenbosch, a historical administrative district in the Netherlands. The map, now housed in the Rijksmuseum, features a detailed illustration of the area, with rivers, roads, and towns clearly marked. The use of different colors to highlight various regions and cartographic details like the inclusion of a decorative cartouche, a framed inscription at the top, contribute to this map's historical and artistic significance.
