The most wanted maps of the Netherlands

Between 1865 an 1868 Jacob Kuyper drew 1200 plans of all dutch communities in the Gemeente Atlas published by Hugo Suringar in Leeuwarden.
Jacob Kuyper was the most important dutch cartographer of the 19th century and founder of the Royal Dutch Geography Society (KNAG).
