Carte de La Hongrie et Partie Septentrionale de la Turquie.

Rare, large scale c.18th chart published in 1780, represents a significant achievement in eighteenth-century French cartography.

Created by Jean-Claude Dezauche, this map was primarily based on the pioneering work of Guillaume Delisle, who was widely considered the premier geographer of his era. Dezauche, a prominent publisher who later served as a geographer to the French King, acquired the plates for this work and updated them to reflect the shifting geopolitical landscape of the time. The map provides a detailed and expansive view of Central and Southeastern Europe, focusing on the Kingdom of Hungary and the northern territories of the Ottoman Empire. Its geographical scope is broad, capturing the complex borders of the Balkans, Bosnia, Serbia, and Slavonia, while also detailing regions such as Transylvania and Dalmatia. By illustrating these areas, the map serves as a vital record of the frontier between the Habsburg and Ottoman Empires during a period of intense territorial transition.

The level of detail is meticulous, offering precise placements for major cities, river systems, and mountain ranges.
