"Hollandiae Pars Meridionalior, Vulgo Zuyd-Holland", Visscher, Nicolas

This attractive map is centered on De Biesbosch, now known as one of the last freshwater tide areas in Europe. The map extends to include Breda, Dordrecht, and Gouda. The tiny street patterns of the major cities are shown along with good detail of the surrounding provinces. A compass rose, several sailing ships, and a title cartouche featuring putti and a river god decorate the map.
