All the lakes, rivers, canals, streams, ditches and other watercourses of the province of Drenthe are depicted on this high-detail yet minimalist map. That is why it is not a land map but a water map. One of the nice things about this type of map is that by only showing the water, other objects on land automatically come to the fore, such as forests, towns and polders. As a water country, the Netherlands is perfect for this. This artwork has a terracotta colour palette. The water has the colour of dark coral, which is on the border between orange and brown. The background has a creamy light beige colour. It is ideal for warm interiors that make extensive use of pastels and beiges.
This artwork is also available in the following colour palettes: Generous blue with cosmic white Olive green and straw yellow Black and white The data used comes from the Dutch Basisregistratie Grootschalige Topgrafie.
