This map depicts the region surrounding Namur, following the Meuse River from Huy to Givet, and extending west to Charleroi and Thuin. The map is densely engraved with roads, tiny towns, rivers, and forests, and the large cities are depicted with their fortifications. The lovely title cartouche features a cartographer, a soldier, a river god and the angel of Fame.
