Summary
| Description |
English: Detail of the map that, in 1716, fixed the limits between the Habsburg Low Countries and the United Provinces, following the War of Spanish Succession. This limit is nowadays the border between Belgium and Netherlands. It is indicated on the map by a red thread.
Two copies of the map exist, one at the Nationaal Archief of The Hague and this one at the State Archives in Brussels. The Belgian copy was made in 1758 by R.V. Luchtelen and Colonel De Laing. Transcript of the map's cartouche: Carte particulière des environs d'une partie des limistes en Flandre entre les terres de S.M.I. et Catholicque et celle des Etats Genereaux des Provinces Unies.
