An attractive map of the Alsatia displaying a region of both modern day France and Germany. The River Rhine dissects the map beginning at Philipsburg in the north and extending upriver to Basel and beyond. It bears a beautifully engraved title cartouche typical of the Dutch mastery of the day. The dating of maps by the Visscher family is very hard but bearing the privilege granted in 1677 we can estimate the date of issue at approximately 1690. An example of the second state with the addition of a reference grid. Koeman (1967-70) III pp. 150-84 no. 91*; Tooley (1999-2004).
