Orbis Terrarum by Braun and Hogenberg, published in Köln from 1572 to 1617. This ca. 450 year old map shows the Belgian port on the River Schelde from a bird's-eye perspective. Prominent are the star-shaped citadel built by the Duke of Alba on Antwerp's southern side, the defensive moat and the harbour serving this prosperous centre of commerce. Latin text on verso. Size: ca 33 x 47 cm.Provenance: Private Collection, Amsterdam
