An attractive bird's-eye plan of old Vienna and its fortifications and the surrounding suburbs with a detailed panorama below. The map has a numbered and lettered key to 32 locations in a decorative cartouche held aloft by an eagle and three putti. At bottom is a beautiful view of Vienna on a drape held by two soldiers. To the left is a river god holding a vessel spilling the waters of the Danube. To the right is Cybele, the goddess of towns, wearing a turreted headpiece, sitting next to the coat of arms of Vienna, and surrounded by weaponry.
