This miniature map of Hungary is centered on Budapest on the Danube River. Key cities are shown and the country is divided into two major regions. Pierre Duval was Nicolas Sanson's nephew and pupil. He published a wide range of atlases and individual maps including a fine miniature world geography with many of the maps based on Sanson.
