This is an uncommon copper engraved map of the southern part of Poland including the cities of Krakow, Radom, Lublin, and Crestochowa. Warsaw is in the extreme north part of the chart. The map provides full detail of the tiny villages and the roads connecting the major cities. It is crisply engraved and decorated with a handsome title cartouche. Franz von Reilly was a Viennese art dealer and map publisher who assembled three atlases between 1789-99.
