This bound volume of prints, *Les Forces de l'Europe, Asie, Afrique et Amerique*, was created by Pieter van der (I) Aa in 1726. It is a collection of prints depicting the strength of various continents, as well as maps of the coasts of France and Spain. The volume, currently located at the Rijksmuseum, demonstrates the cartographic and artistic achievements of the 18th century and offers a fascinating glimpse into the understanding of the world at that time.
