"Kaart van de Veluwe" is an anonymous map of the Veluwe region in the Netherlands, dating from 1641 to 1680. It depicts the region's geography, including rivers, forests, and towns, in meticulous detail. The map's ornate frame and title cartouche, which displays the name "Velavia," enhance its aesthetic appeal. This map, currently housed in the Rijksmuseum, provides a valuable insight into the cartography and landscape of the Netherlands during the Dutch Golden Age.
