Very decorative map of the region north of the Sea of Azov. The land is fully engraved with forests and wild animals and tiny ships sail in the sea. Three corners of the map are decorated with large cartouches, each flanked with figures depicting the royalty and merchant class. Attractive later color. Paper added to bottom corners, well away from the engraved image. Minor crease along fold at bottom and repaired split in bottom margin. Overall clean, crisp and very good condition.
