EDITORS COMMENTS
This historic map print, titled "General Map of Saint Petersburg 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 comprised sixty maps of the Russian Empire. The map was compiled and engraved by Colonel Vasilii Petrovich Piadyshev and Iwanoff. The map offers a detailed representation of the Saint Petersburg Province during the first quarter of the 19th century, a time when Russian military cartographers were meticulously mapping the region. The map showcases population centers, categorized into six gradations based on size, postal stations, roads (with four distinct types), state, provincial, and district borders, monasteries, factories, and customs houses. Distances are indicated in versts, a Russian measure equal to 1.07 kilometers, which was commonly used during that period. Legends and place-names on the map are presented in both Russian and French, reflecting the international influence of the time. This intricately detailed map offers a fascinating glimpse into the geography and infrastructure of the Saint Petersburg Province during the early 19th century.
