Map of the Berbice and Canje rivers

Title Leupe: Schetskaart van de rivieren de Berbice en Canje, met de namen der Plantagien.

This general map shows the situation on the Berbice and Canje rivers as it was just over five years after the Osterlin map (VEL1565).

In the interim period the land reclamation process, in the interest of developing new plantations, had rapidly progressed, especially along the upper reaches of both rivers.

This is a combination of two maps drawn by Knapp (VEL1566 and VEL1567).

This draft would later be printed several times (VEL1568 en VEL1569).
