European Russia, engraved by John Moffat for John Thomson's New General Atlas, 1815.
The European part of the Russian Empire, showing the extent of Russian administrative reach in the post-Napoleonic era following the Congress of Vienna. Major cities and towns are noted, as are rivers, lakes, and mountain ranges, which are rendered with careful hachures—a technique used to depict relief before the development of contour lines.
