EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite steel engraving showcases an old map of Poland as it appeared in 1772, a significant year in the country's history. The map depicts the Republic and the Kingdom of Poland, with the major cities of Warsaw and Vilnius prominently featured. The intricate detail of the engraving is enhanced by the delicate hand-coloured borderlines, adding an artistic touch to the historical representation. The map serves as a testament to the political landscape of Poland during the late 18th century. The territorial boundaries reflect the aftermath of the First Partition of Poland, which saw the country divided among neighboring powers. Warsaw, then the capital city, is depicted as a thriving metropolis, while Vilnius, an important cultural and religious center, is also highlighted. Steel engraving was a popular method for producing maps during the 18th and 19th centuries due to its ability to produce highly detailed and accurate representations. This particular map, published in 1857, offers a fascinating glimpse into the past, allowing us to explore the historical geography of Poland during a pivotal period in its history. Collectors and history enthusiasts will appreciate the intricate detail and artistic merit of this vintage map. Displaying it in a home or office setting not only adds a touch of historical charm but also serves as an educational piece, providing insights into the rich history of Poland.
