Koeman IV, map 3167, ed. 41:1 (1617/18 B&H 6). - A birds-eye-view of Ostend (German: Ostende, Dutch: Oostende), a Belgian coastal city, located in the province of West Flanders. - This view comes from the sixth and last volume of Civitates Orbis Terrarum ("Theatri Praecipuarum Totius Mundi Urbivm Liber Sextus"), published in a much smaller edition than previous volumes, and it is therefore rarer than most of Braun & Hogenberg city views.
