An interesting map detailing a fortified canal that was built in 1626 between Venlo and Rheinberg, connecting the Maas and Rhine rivers. It is filled with detail, including cities, farms, and forests. A compass rose orients north to the upper right, and two decorative cartouches enclose the scale of miles and the title. French text on verso.

The map has a nice impression and attractive color on a sound sheet. There is some faint damp stain in the blank margin, and some pencil notations. There is an old repair on the fold in the bottom margin.
