A relative embedding of a graph in a surface with respect to a set of closed walks is one where each of the prescribed closed walks bounds a face of the embedding. In the special case where the set of closed walks is empty, this amounts to the usual concept of a graph embedding. We present a formula for the maximum (orientable) genus of the surface on which a graph has a relative embedding with respect to a set of closed walks.
