Fine small map reduced from Jansson's folio map of this historic region. Amiens is just west of center, extending to Cambrai in the northeast and to Laon in the southeast. Fully engraved with cities and forests and adorned with title and scale of miles cartouches. Latin text on verso.

This map was re-engraved for Jan Jansson's editions of the Atlas Minor, published in 5 editions between 1628-48. The copperplates for the original Atlas Minor editions published by Hondius were sold to parties in England between 1621-25. Jansson commissioned Pieter van den Keere and Abraham Goos to engrave new plates, which were close copies of the original editions.
