Ground plan for the reconstruction of the Brandwacht redoubt

Osterlin, Philippus Marcus

Title Leupe: Plans, platte gronden, opstanden voor gebouwen in het fort Samson.

This drawing of the ‘improved’ Brandwacht by Philippus Marcus Osterlin belongs to his site map under number VEL1623 and gives the cross-section and views of the four sides of the post as it was round 1740.

Leupe wrongly attributes the map to to P.D. Desmaretz and J.D. Knapp.
