This is the western sheet of a two-sheet map of Saxony that highlights the silver mining operations in the region. The map extends from Greiz (Gratz) in the west to Brand-Erbisdorf in the east, and from Waldheim in the north to Eibenstock in the south. The region is divided into eighteen prefectures and includes great detail of the towns, political boundaries, roads, forests, and rivers. At bottom left is a vignette relating to silver mining. This sheet includes the elaborate title cartouche for the two-sheet map and stands on its own with full borders.
