EDITORS COMMENTS
This historic map print, titled "General Map of Estland Province: Showing Postal and Major Roads, Stations and the Distance in Versts between Them," dates back to 1820. It is an extract from the larger work, "Geograficheskii atlas Rossiiskoi imperii, tsarstva Pol'skogo i velikogo kniazhestva Finliandskogo" (Geographical atlas of the Russian Empire, the Kingdom of Poland, and the Grand Duchy of Finland), which consists of 60 maps of the Russian Empire. The map was compiled and engraved by Colonel Vasilii Petrovich Piadyshev and Faleleef. The map provides a detailed representation of Estland Province, which corresponds to the northern part of present-day Estonia. The map shows various population centers, with six gradations based on size, postal stations, roads of four types, provincial and district borders, and customs houses. The distances between these locations are indicated in versts, a Russian measure equal to 1.07 kilometers, which was commonly used during that period. The map's legends and place-names are in both Russian and German, reflecting the multicultural nature of the region during the Russian Empire. The meticulous mapping carried out by Russian military cartographers during the first quarter of the 19th century is evident in the level of detail and accuracy presented on this map. This rare and valuable historical artifact offers a fascinating glimpse into the geography and infrastructure of Estland Province during the Russian Empire era.
