He traveled to Paris in 1681-1685 and won the privilege in 1690 of publishing maps and atlases by French publishers in Amsterdam. The map has lots of topographical detail and shows numerous place names. Some of the features on the map are towns, villages, rivers, hills, roads, bridges, estates and forests. The map is on hand laid paper and has a beautiful decorated title cartouche in the lower left corner. It is blank of the reverse side. It measures approximately 36" x 25", including the border area. The map has a good 4 1/2" border on the left and the right and a 2" border on the top and bottom. The map is in Good condition.

There are some creases here and there, as well. The map has a crease/fold line down the middle from when it was originally bound. There are some pencil notes along the bottom right border by a previous owner. Other dings here and there. Still this is a GREAT MAP and will look fabulous when framed!
