De zegepraalende Vecht is a 1719 Dutch and French picture book published in Amsterdam by the widow of Nicolaes Visscher, with engravings by Adolf van der Laan and others after texts by Andries de Leth, presenting country estates, gardens and villages along the Vecht river from Utrecht to Muiden. The plates show estates in plan and elevation, with formal parterres, canal-side houses, tree-lined avenues and carriages, giving a designer a clear record of Dutch baroque garden layout and the classical facade proportions of early eighteenth-century country houses.
