This spectacular map is centered on Amsterdam and shows the region around the Waddenzee. The map is filled with place names and great detail on the fractured land and waterways in this portion of Holland. Decorated with a large strapwork title cartouche, scale of miles with a divider, fancy 16-point compass rose, and the Royal coat of arms. The seas are fully engraved and decorated with sailing ships and a small fishing boat. Spanish text on verso.

A dark impression on a sheet with the crossed arrows watermark commonly found on Ortelius maps. There are some small wormholes and short separations along the centerfold, all of which have been backed with archival materials, some printer's ink residue, and light foxing that is mostly confined to the blank margins. Remnants of framing tape on verso.
