It extends from Presburg (Bratislava) east to Cronstat (Brasov), and from the southern Polish border to the Belgrade. There are several towns and cities identified and good topographical detail. The top right corner of the map is dominated by a striking title cartouche with a martial theme. Engraved by G. Zuliani, with lettering by G. Pitteri.
