This large map is finely and fully engraved to show topographical detail of mountains, deserts, rivers and forests. Moscow is located at upper center, and Serbia is shown in an inset at lower right. The map extends to the Volga River in the east and south to show Georgia and parts of the Black and Caspian Seas, including Crimea. In the upper right corner lies a decorative rococo-style title cartouche festooned with putti and garlands.

A lovely impression on a sound sheet with original outline color. There is a very faint stain in the top of the map, and one light crease.
