A map of the Kraków and Sandomierz provinces, including the southern part of the Lublin Province and the Duchy of Sieradz, i.e., the western part of Lesser Poland. The title is placed in an oval cartouche with scrollwork and floral garlands in the upper left corner. The map depicts the western part of Lesser Poland, which, following the First Partition of Poland in 1772, remained under the rule of the Polish Crown, encompassing the provinces of Kraków and Sandomierz, the Duchy of Sieradz, and the southern part of the Lublin Province, with the cities of Kraków, Sandomierz, Radom, Lublin, and Częstochowa clearly marked. The Vistula River marks the southern and eastern borders with Galicia, denoting the Habsburg territories annexed in 1772, while Warsaw is marked at the top of the sheet. The map shows numerous towns, villages, and administrative centers, and the borders of provinces and counties are highlighted in red.
