Delightful small map centered on present-day Kaliningrad and including parts of Poland and Lithuania. The map is fully engraved with rivers, lakes, forests and mountains and is filled with place names. The Baltic Sea is filled with an ornate title cartouche, sailing ships, and a sea monster. French text on verso.
