A copperplate engraving of a geographical map depicting the city of Antwerp and its surroundings along the Scheldt River. The map is oriented with East ("ORIENS") at the top. The city of Antwerp is shown with prominent fortifications and church spires on the right bank of the river. The surrounding landscape is dotted with small settlements, polders, and windmills. The river itself is labeled twice: "DE SCHELDE" The Scheldt and "SCALDIS FLUVIVS" Scheldt River. At the bottom center, an ornate baroque cartouche holds the map's title.
