This historic map print, titled "General Map of Tula Province: Showing Postal and Major Roads, Stations, and the Distance in Versts between Them," was created in 1822 by Colonel Vasilii Petrovich Piadyshev and engraver Faleleef. The map is part of a 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 contained 60 maps of the Russian Empire. The map of Tula Province offers a detailed representation of the region during the early 19th century. It reflects the extensive mapping efforts carried out by Russian military cartographers, showcasing population centers, postal stations, roads, provincial and district borders, monasteries, and factories.
