ABSTRACT TOPOGRAPHY: THE POLITICAL LANDSCAPE OF NIEUW HOLLAND IN FRANS VINETES POST FOR THE MAP MURAL BRASILIA QUA PART PARET BELGIS, 1643-1647

The former connote the Orangist ideology while the latter refers to the mercantile and civil republicanism within political culture of Seventeenth-Century United Provinces of the Netherlands
