"Kaart van het Graafschap Holland en Utrecht (plaat 22)" is a 1639 map of the Dutch provinces of Holland and Utrecht by Jacob Aertsz. Colom. This map is a detailed illustration of the coastlines and waterways of these two regions, including the prominent islands of Texel and Vlie. The map utilizes a dotted pattern for the sea and the islands, while leaving the land areas blank. Two ships are depicted on the map, adding a sense of realism to the otherwise abstract image. This map is a valuable historical document illustrating the geographical knowledge and navigational practices of the Dutch Golden Age.
