EDITORS COMMENTS
This map print, titled "Nouvelle Carte des Sept Departements de la Hollande/ New map of the seven Dutch departments" by Jan Gerritsz. Visser, dates back to 1811-1812. The map marks a significant period in the history of the Netherlands, as it reflects the new classification of the country following the decree of Napoleon Bonaparte in October 1811. The map is divided into seven departments, each named and labeled in both French and Dutch. The extensive titles at the left of the print provide a key to the symbols used, including geographical features such as coasts, islands, and dikes, which are crucial for flood defence in the low-lying Netherlands. The map is etched and painted in watercolor, showcasing the intricate details of the Dutch coastline and the North Sea. The map is an essential piece of European geographical heritage, reflecting the political changes that took place during that time. It is a testament to the rich cultural and historical significance of the Netherlands, which has been shaped by its location between the North Sea and the Rhine River. The map is also a beautiful work of art, with its vibrant colors and meticulous attention to detail. This map is a valuable addition to any collection of European maps, art, or history. It can be displayed in a museum, home, or office, and is a conversation starter for anyone interested in the history and geography of Europe. The map is a reminder of the past, but it also serves as a reminder of the importance of understanding the geography and history of the world around us.
