About the Item
Antique Map of Gelderland – Sleeswijk Atlas, 1914
Description:
This antique map of Gelderland was published in 1914 in the Sleeswijk Atlas, one of the most widely used Dutch school atlases of the early 20th century. It depicts the largest province of the Netherlands, known for its varied landscapes ranging from river valleys to forests and heathlands.
The map extends from Utrecht and the Randstad in the west across the Veluwe to the eastern borders with Germany, and from Harderwijk on the Zuiderzee down to Nijmegen and the Rhine valley in the south. Major cities such as Arnhem, Nijmegen, Zutphen, Apeldoorn, and Wageningen are prominently marked, alongside smaller towns and villages. The Veluwe region appears as an expansive sandy and wooded area in the center, contrasting with the fertile river lands of the Betuwe and the Liemers.
The extensive river system is carefully drawn, showing the courses of the Rhine, Waal, IJssel, and Maas as they cross the province. Red lines highlight the growing railway network that connected Gelderland to the rest of the Netherlands and Germany. The legend (“Verklaring”) provides symbols for tramways, roads, waterways, boundaries, and dikes. With its scale of 1:400,000, the map is both precise and legible, designed for classroom use but today valued for its historic and decorative qualities.
Published by A. Sleeswijk in Bussum and lithographed by J. Smulders
Co. in The Hague, the map exemplifies early 20th-century Dutch educational cartography. Its balanced color scheme and clear typography make it both a practical learning tool and an attractive historical artifact.
