Liechtenstern Map of the Two Galicias 1804

A political map in German and French of the "Two Galicias" during the brief period before so-called "New" or West Galicia (including Lublin and Radom) was lost to the Duchy of Warsaw and then Congress Poland. Designed by Joseph Marx von Liechtenstern and drafted by Franz Haeufler, the map shows four kinds of political boundaries, depicts villages to cities in four size rankings, traces large and small rivers, and connects towns via roads and postal routes. Three-color map published by the Bureau of Arts and Industries in Vienna. Original copy of the map from the Central Library of Geography and Environmental Protection, digitized by the Institute of Geography and Spatial Organization of the Polish Academy of Sciences; digital copy sourced by Jay Osborn from the Repozytorium Cyfrowe Instytutów Naukowych (RCIN).
