DR1988:0435
Description:
- Plan of proposed fortifications for Sas van Gent, a lock on the Terneuzen-Ghent canal, where the canal meets the Wester Schelde River. The relationship between canal, lock, and river is not immediately clear in this drawing, but can be understood by comparison with A. Hattinga's map of 1750, 'Plan van het Sas van Gent' (Hattinga, reprint 1977). The dotted lines probably outline existing fortifications, while pentimenti in pen and red ink may be changes in the project (Cazort, 3.). There is a compass rose in the lower left corner.
