A superb plan of Amsterdam with remarkably fresh early colour. It bears a panoramic view of the city below, complete with fine allegorical vignettes either side representing trade made with all corners of the globe. Above the view is a regal figure flanked by putti. A series of tables number 286 fortifications and streets. Most indicative of the importance of trade to Amsterdam are the presence of the warehouses for the Dutch East and West India Companies. This is the early issue without privilege. Fauser (1978) 401.
