Cities of the World

ARNHEM

A hand-colored bird's-eye view map of the city of Arnhem. The city is depicted within its fortified walls and a protective moat connected to the Rhine River. Inside the fortifications, the streets are lined with red-roofed houses, several prominent churches with spires, and numerous green garden plots. To the left and bottom, the Rhine River flows, labeled "RHYN". In the top right corner is a coat of arms featuring a blue lion rampant on a gold background. In the bottom right is an empty circular frame. A large, ornate Renaissance-style cartouche in the lower-left corner contains the city's Latin title. The surrounding landscape shows rural fields and small structures.
