This 18th-century map, "Kaart van het graafschap Vlaanderen," depicts the County of Flanders, a historical region located in present-day Belgium and France. The map, created by an anonymous cartographer, is a detailed representation of the region's geography, featuring roads, rivers, and towns. It is notable for its decorative cartouche, which includes angels and a coat of arms, a characteristic of many maps from this period. The map, measuring 515 mm in height and 602 mm in width, is now housed at the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam.
