Beskrivning

This finely engraved map by Frederik de Wit presents the Duchy of Cleves (Clivia Ducatus), the County of Mark, and the County of Ravensberg, regions in the Holy Roman Empire located near present-day western Germany and the Netherlands. The map illustrates detailed geographic and political boundaries, rivers, settlements, forests, and topographic features. A large baroque cartouche in the bottom left corner is flanked by putti and heraldic emblems, enhancing its decorative appeal.

Frederik de Wit was one of the foremost cartographers and publishers of the Dutch Golden Age. His Amsterdam-based workshop produced highly sought-after atlases and wall maps. De Wit was known for his precise rendering of political borders and artistic composition, helping shape the visual and geographic understanding of Europe in the 17th century.
