Description
This is an excellent map of the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth. The Commonwealth was unable to protect the occupied provinces, and ultimately lost 30% of its overall territory - after this map was issued. Poland extends along the Baltic coastline from Riga to Gdansk and stretches southeast to include much of present-day Romania and Ukraine. The map itself extents to the Black Sea. Much detailed information is provided as to topography, rivers, lakes, forests, towns and political divisions. The title cartouche attributes the map to J T Mayer, whose detailed map of the Polish Empire was in turn based on Barnikel's and J Nieprzecki's maps of the region. Titled in French along the top of the map.
