Reverse description
A creative composition of visual elements that give an impression of what was shipped and traded via the Hanseatic routes: leather and animal skins, hops, beer and wine, salt and spices, fish, grains and beeswax, wood and cloth... From the map showing the Hanseatic region, a cog ship sails over the turbulent waves. A 13th-century coin from Bruges symbolizes trade and merit. A pictogram of the Bruges Belfry emphasizes the importance of the Belgian Hanseatic cities and the prosperity they brought.
