This is the general overview map of the province of Friesland from Franz Joseph Johann von Reilly’s *Schauplatz der fünf Theile der Welt* (“Showplace of the Five Parts of the World”). The sheet covers the entire province, from the Zuiderzee (now IJsselmeer) and the Frisian lakes in the south to the Lauwerszee in the north, with its borders marked against Groningen, Drenthe, and Overijssel. Towns and villages are clearly marked, along with rivers, waterways, and lakes that characterize Friesland’s historic landscape. Districts are outlined in original hand color, with Oostergo and Westergo shown distinctly, making the map not only a useful geographical record but also a decorative representation of the province.
