This uncommon map is focused on the area between the Meuse and Moselle Rivers, showing in minute detail the area from Namur and Charleroy in the west to Stadtkyll and Thionville in the east. The map was finely engraved by P. Starckman to distinguish fortifications, cities, villages, rivers, forests and marshes. The graceful cartouche includes the crest of the Duchy of Luxembourg.
