This large, detailed, and ornate bird's-eye view style map of Liege, Belgium, was produced by Joan Blaeu in 1649 for inclusion in his city atlas of the Netherlands. A Closer Look A numbered key to 250 locations appears in a table at the bottom of the engraving. Four coats of arms surmount the view: those of the Prince-Bishop of Liege, the Holy Roman Empire, Liege's Archbishop Maximilian Henry of Bavaria, and the city of Liege itself. Dominating the center of the view (and receiving the honor of number 1 in the list) is the Grand Cathedral of Our Lady and St. Lambert. When French Revolutionary forces captured the city in 1794, the French Revolutionary Army destroyed the Cathedral as an aristocratic symbol of the prince-bishop. One prominent feature of the city's topography is a sharp oxbow on the Meuse, La Sauvenière . By the end of the 18th century, La Sauvenière had become stagnant and unsanitary. Starting in 1808, the canal was gradually filled - predominantly with debris from the Cathedral of Our Lady and St. Lambert. It was turned into a canal and a promenade beginning in the 1820s, and in 1844, it was entirely filled. Today, it has been paved over by the Boulevard de la Sauvenière, otherwise known as the N617a. Publication History This map was engraved by Julius Milheuser for inclusion in Joan Blaeu's Novum ac Magnum Theatrum Urbium Belgicae Regiae , first appearing in the 1649 Latin edition of the book (as is the case with this example). A later state, with De Wit's imprint, has been recorded. Three separate examples are listed in OCLC. Scarce on the market. References: OCLC 776691916. Koeman, C. Atlantes Neerlandici, V.
