Vasilii Petrovich Piadyshev and his collaborators, Faleleef, Iwanoff, and Ieremin, were prolific mapmakers of their time, producing a series of detailed and informative maps of various Russian provinces between 1820 and 1822. Their "General Maps of Kaluga, Poltava, Pskov, Ekaterinoslav, Chernigov, Kharkiv, Vladimir, Kursk, Moscow, Tver, Novgorod, and Bessarabia Provinces" showcased postal and major roads, stations, and distances between key locations. These maps served as essential tools for travelers and administrators during the Russian Empire's expansion and development.
