Created by an anonymous artist, this woodcut map offers a glimpse into the cartography and graphic arts of the Middle Ages. The intricate details and craftsmanship are truly awe-inspiring. Housed in the esteemed State History Museum in Moscow, this map holds immense significance for Russian history enthusiasts. It provides valuable insights into the early Rus period, Muscovy, and the Moscow Principality during that era. The Grand Duchy of Moscow's territorial boundaries are meticulously depicted, offering a visual representation of its vast dominion. The inclusion of Sigmund von Herberstein's name is noteworthy as he was an influential figure in European diplomacy with Russia during his time. His work "Rerum Moscoviticarum Commentarii" likely served as inspiration for this map.
